Happiness is Free of Cost !!

Most of us love the words FREE or COMPLIMENTARY !! If there are 2 garment shops besides each other. One has the Buy One Get One Offer, and other one has Fixed Price No Bargain plate, we are likely to go for the former one. We love to run behind Discounts, Sale and Offers. But do you know, the most important things that one seeks in life, are all free of cost ?? Blessings, Love, Trust, Happiness and Peace- all these things are absolutely priceless and cost nothing at all. We are so busy running behind materialistic pleasures, that we forget these real pleasures of life !

Our World has become a Roller Coaster in many ways. Words like debt, bankruptcy, downturn, deficit and depression are now used frequently with ease and familiarity. But what about the H Word ? Why is it so difficult to be HAPPY ?

As we all know, all our Gods have suffered a lot in their times. Jesus Christ went through supreme suffering and Torture. Lord Mahavira was nailed in the entire body. Lord Ganesha lost his head, chopped down by his own father. You google any God in the entire Universe, and you will know the sufferings they went through in their lifetime. But all these sufferings and pain, didn’t stop them from the abundance of joy they brought in people’s lives.

On the other hand, what are we doing? Going to them (GOD) pleading for a Peaceful, Happy, Healthy and Wealthy Life, of course without any sufferings ! Remember, where there is Pain, there is Gain !

We have totally forgotten that, life has already gifted us with infinite joy and happiness. We don’t need permission from anyone except ours, to be Happy and Contented.

Millions are losing their lives every moment. Aren’t we blessed, for being Alive ? Because we are Alive, we can watch nature’s wonders..witness the most beautiful Sunrise and Sunset..Cook..Read..Sing..Dance..Exercise..Play like a Carefree Kid..Eat delicious food..Sleep..Relax..Watch movies..Enjoy or simply do nothing !! Do more of what makes us Happy. Our lives are filled with trillions of such treasures that do not affect our bank accounts but enrich our hearts with true fulfilment and happiness.

Friends, Happiness is totally in your hands ! Nothing will make you happy, until you chose to be Happy :) It’s upto you whether to grey your hair with endless worries, or just live in each and every gifted moment :)

From now on, let’s not cry because it’s over, but let’s smile because it happened. 😊
