Finding happiness

Happiness is what we all want and sometimes think that it is so difficult.  We work hard all our life in so many ways to find happiness but it is not always that we find it.  Since happiness is a state of being and not a thing to acquire, we need to be in that state to feel it.  We know as a fact that when we feel happy there are not too many thoughts in our minds, not too much commotion in our minds and we just enjoy that moment.  It boils down to simplicity at that moment.  This simplicity is the key to happiness.  The simpler we are and lesser commotion we have, easier it is to be happy.

What are our expectations for happiness?

We expect that we deserve happiness. We count all our acts and process done in past for all the people we know in such a way to feel that the universe is not fair to us and is not giving us happiness although we have done so much for others.

We forget that whatever we have done might have either a selfish cause, or some other demands or very minute ego that even we don’t know about. As long as we are biased and see everything with our own perspective, it is hard to find the happiness although we expect it.

Once we start looking into the details and taking out all those things that are keeping happiness away from us, we find that the true happiness was always within us and we did not need to expect much. When we gave away our expectations, we get happy easily.

Looking for happiness – is it out there?

When we go outside looking for happiness, it is difficult to find. We know that in this world everyone is looking for happiness and hoping to get it from someone. If everyone is looking to get it, who is out there to give it?

In today’s society, we see how much trouble is out there and therefore looking for happiness becomes ludicrous.

We also know by experience that when we try to get it from others, it may look good for a short time but later on it may bite us back. Why is that?

We need to understand that happiness can not be distributed but is only felt when we do the kind acts on our own without expecting something in return. We do it because we want to do it and that makes us happy.

Who can make us happy - strangers, friends, relatives or enemies

Sometimes we think and feel someone can make us happy. We go to strange places and meet with all new people thinking that life is boring and some new additions can make us happy. Majority of the times we get disappointed because even if we feel good a few times, later on we find something that does not satisfy our minds. Then we turn to our friends and/or relatives to only realize they are not the same as they used to be.

Sometimes we like our enemies and want to be friends with them again to get some happiness from such a change. But after all these efforts we find that we feel good only for some time and after that we again go back to our original self of looking for happiness.

This is all due the fact that true happiness is an outcome of our own efforts of those acts that elevate the humanity in some shape or form. It may be for our own self and for others. This elevation brings the pleasure that does not go away because it is done selflessly and with no expectations in return.

Can Happiness Last Forever?

It depends on our understanding. Our mind constantly ask for changes. So when we please the mind by giving it whatever it desires, the happiness is short term. The mind has a tendency to desire something and if that thing is not given it keeps us making plans to get it.

As soon as we get it, it now starts making new plans. In other words, it never gives us the opportunity to enjoy whatever we have got and be in the moment. Because of this nature of mind, majority of happiness is very short term.

Forever lasting happiness is an act that is done by the heart for the benefit of self or  others without any expectation in return. Here mind may not even like that particular act, but driven by heart and done in love, such act does give us happiness that lasts forever.

Temporary happiness vs. Permanent happiness

We end up getting in life temporary happiness when we do something good for our own self or for others, gain reputation or gain worldly assets. But as we grow further in life, our life parameter changes and what was making us happy yesterday may not mean much to us today. This is due to transient nature of our mind and more so the happiness that we got is actually a recognition of the act that made us happy.

As we grow more into understanding happiness, we realize that true happiness comes when an act is done for the betterment of human kind in any shape and form without any expectation in return. Then whenever we think of such act, we feel happy and it is permanent in nature as it was done as a service for others. This act gives us permanent happiness.

Is Happiness Difficult to Find?

Happiness can be very easy to find and at the same time very difficult to find because it is within us.

We always feel that being with the company of someone, we will be happy or eating foods will make us happy or having worldly possessions will make us happy. But we do not realize that these are all outward activities and happiness is something within us.

To be happy, we need to look within ourselves, hear ourselves, act ourselves and be not under the pressure of gaining anything beyond our reach.

So, if we make this understanding within ourselves, we are happy otherwise we make our own path difficult to find the happiness.

Happiness Improves Your Quality of Life

Happy people become productive in life. They bring harmony within, with each other and in society. They become loving, positive and support each other for progress.

The biological system of a happy person works optimally and keeps him/her healthy at the levels of mind, body and soul.

Once we feel happy at all levels, we spread that without even knowing it because that is what we have within us.

How to Find Happiness

We first identify what makes us happy and then look for those activities, do them, get the desired results and then get happy. The example of such would be if we are out of shape and knowing that getting in shape would make us happy.

In this scenario, we would explore the places that help us to get back in shape e.g. gyms, nutritionists, diet plans, body wraps, cosmetic surgeons etc.

We would then choose the activity that think would give us the best results. We then act and get the desired results. This makes us happy.

Need for Happiness

Everyone likes to move forward in life. If life does not have activities in it, it gets boring. A desire to move forward is created in every human being by the universe.

However, in everyday’s life many things happen with or without our asking for them. Sometimes we are so bogged down with troubles that we look for happiness elsewhere to keep going.

Without happiness, life would be dull and unworthy of living.

Who wants to lead a life where there is no hope, no challenge and no progress?

So, we feel that we need happiness and look ways to find it.

Acquiring Happiness

We feel that we can acquire happiness from many different places in the world. If we have material possessions, we can get happiness. If we become a celebrity, we can get happiness. If we become a leader, we can get happiness.

Often times, we confuse ourselves with attainments of possessions – material or abstract with happiness. Everyday we hear many stories about people who take drastic measures to even end their lives, we still do not get the message that happiness cannot be acquired by having possessions. It is a feeling that comes from within by doing the acts that please us and not by acquiring any amounts of possessions.

Happiness that we feel due to some achievement only comes with our efforts that take us to a positive direction in life.

That is still the happiness from within and not acquired from outside.

The Meaning of Happiness

Happiness is defined as a mental or emotional state of well being characterized by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy. Although we all know about happiness to a different degree, we find that in every day life it is very difficult to look for happiness. Why is that?

It appears that we have got ourselves so busy in so many activities of life, that we almost forgot that those activities were supposed to get us happiness. That was the primary reason that we got started on those with wishful thinking of attaining happiness.

Instead, we find that now we are now chasing all those activities hoping to find pleasure and happiness. In the mean time, when we look carefully, we realize that all those things where were putting our hearts into are giving us stress, anxiety, panic attacks, heart troubles and many other ailments.

We ask ourselves – when and how did that happen? Where did my happiness go?

What is Happiness?

Happiness is something we all want and crave for. We can have everything in life but if we are missing happiness, it seems like an empty shell that has no true life in it - just a cover. We work hard to be able to get the things in life that we need.

Sometimes we get them and sometimes we don't. But the main purpose of life is to be satisfied for whatever we do that in turns gives us happiness.

When we look into happiness there are so many parts of that are involved in getting it, retaining it and taking it all the way through our lives.

Let us look at some parts of it:

• Definition of happiness
• Acquiring happiness
• Temporary happiness
• What is Permanent happiness
• Can happiness last forever - effect of changing circumstances
• Looking for happiness - Is it out there?
• Who can make us happy - strangers, friends, relatives, enemies
• What are our expectations for happiness?
• What it takes to be happy from being unhappy?
• Worldly possessions - is it the source of happiness?
• Happiness and diseases – are they related?
• Does wellness comes with happiness?

This is one of our many upcoming posts on happiness. Think about what makes you happy and how you stay happy in your daily life.


We will be exploring all this in our upcoming blogs. Stay tuned.

Achievement of Happiness

Happiness is achieved through various means. Some of the examples are having a family that is cohesive, progressive and respectful. Other examples could be from the work place where the environment is productive and fair business practices are followed.

A further addition could be seeing oneself being healthy from mind, body and intellect, which is what we focus on at DKWS.

All these positive things in everyday life do make us feel that we are feeling happiness although with a hidden fear of losing it any time without any prior notice.
