Why Money Can’t Buy Happiness!
See first, before criticizing me on this topic, I will explain to you the true meaning of happiness.
First, happiness is nothing but a feeling of deep gratitude.
It’s not just satisfaction; it’s a feeling of joy independent of whether desires are achieved or not.
It’s free from fear and devoid of desires; it is simply gratitude for the gift of life.
So, you can feel it now. Just take a deep breath and for a moment, think about what you have that is precious at the present moment.
Maybe it’s your eyes or something valuable you currently possess, but you’ve been ignoring it due to unwanted desires.
When you start feeling gratitude for what you have, then joy, or happiness, emerges. It’s not about needing something to feel happy.
Even a blind person or someone without a leg can experience happiness if they know the ultimate truth of life. And what is that truth? It is simply that life is a precious gift given by God.
So, don’t waste it worrying about the future or dwelling on the past. It is a present that you need to enjoy with happiness.
Money and Happiness
Now, money and happiness shouldn’t be compared directly.
I understand that fulfilling needs can indirectly lead to happiness, but even a wealthy person may feel sadness if they don’t know the truth of life. So, fulfilling needs is important, and for that, you need money, no doubt.
However, I can’t say you need money for happiness.
It simply requires gratitude. You don’t need to buy a private plane, but if you want to, you can. However, showing off provides temporary satisfaction, not genuine joy.
It might feel like happiness, but it’s just excitement, not true happiness.
In a Nutshell, the idea that money can’t buy happiness has been proven. Many people may tell you that money can buy happiness, but they are merely lying to fulfill their own desires; it is just an illusion.
However, remember this: you do need to earn money for your family and other needs.
