1 quality that makes you a happy person, hence others.

Happiness is when what you think, what you say and what you do are in Harmony. Happiness is a state of mind that express your positive being.

When you are happy, you are true to the world. What you are as a person is what appears on a smiling face.

“To be happy, we must not be too concerned with others.”
Albert Camus

Well, the above line is very true. Attachments create false expectations and expectations always hurt. We must be emotional with the happenings around but not foolish.

I got Little diverted, but these things are true to know the importance of happiness.

Some food left on your plate may be your luxury but can be a food for the day for someone else.

To spread happiness, you must understand people and put your foot inside their shoes.

Very famous Chinese lines say :

If you want happiness for an hour — take a nap.’
If you want happiness for a day — go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year — inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime — help someone else

Happiness is a journey and it consists of every small happy moment, every smile you give to others.

Helping anyone or doing some social work for society will make you happier and proud citizen too.

The next level is bliss. Bliss is an utmost happiness and it generally comes when you make other people happy.

Action item:

On your way to office or shopping mall, make an eye contact and pass a smile to a person who daily opens the door for you. TRY it, TRUST me.

Call your old parents, granny or uncle who may not be expecting a call from you for long time.(C’mon keep that ego aside, if any)

Next time when you see someone helpless, help them with whatever they need. (Try to help anonymously)

In all the above action items, you will spread the smile and experience happiness & inner bliss.

Moral of the story is: Happiness is a beautiful gift you can give to anyone or yourself.

Make someone happy a day and your mission of life is accomplished.
