What do you need to be happy?
Even though one has everything to be happy, many times, one is not able to see it.
Today, more people are unhappy, depressed and sad than ever before. The problem lies in the misperception of the concept of happiness. People associate 'being happy' with having and getting everything they want and even what others have.
Being happy is a way of living in the present, without conditions or limitations. You can be happy even if you don't have a boyfriend, money or job, and even if you have problems.
Happiness is a personal choice that is accompanied by the decision to recognize or ignore what one is, what one has and what one needs to live.
Every person has the ability to see and value all the good things that happen to them, no matter how insignificant they may be. They can also recognize the people who love them and those who help them to be better and make them see things from a positive perspective.
But at the same time, one also has the same power to criticize, to envy, to live angry, to find everything bad and wrong. This power makes life a real miserable and lonely hell.
If you want to be happy, you don't have to go looking for what you don't have, nor buy what others assure you you need, and much less see yourself as what you are not. To be happy, you only need to learn to see life with a noble eye, be positive and stop carrying thoughts that hurt you.
When you focus on your shortcomings, life owes you. But when you can see the abundance of life, you find a generous, kind and great world.
To be happy, it is important to cleanse the soul, correct what bothers us, and let go of what hurts us. This does not mean that life is easy, nor is it about ignoring problems and avoiding things that bother us. Simply to be happy, one has to choose to focus on the positive aspects of the things that happen to us.
The option to be happy lies within oneself, since one is the only person who can find the opportunities to be happy, no matter how cliché it may sound.
Abundance resides in your thoughts. The strength and courage to live is carried within you. The power to change your vision belongs to you.
You have the power to enjoy what you have. It doesn't matter what's coming your way, or what you can solve tomorrow. Stop looking for happiness elsewhere, happiness is in your heart. The decision to be happy is yours. Don't waste another minute.
Be happy today, you have what you need to be happy.
