Where does the happiness lie?


We all feel hopeless at some time of the day, week or the month. We find it hard to smile, to love ourselves, to love others, to stay happy and find a reason to love life. No matter what, we just can’t find the courage to smile. It feels like there is a burden, someone pressing hard against the chest and stopping us from being happy or smiling.


In this difficult situation, we never understand that it’s actually the little things that help us get out of that phase. A few encouraging words by someone, maybe a good morning message, a cup of tea with a friend, seeing the sunset by the sea, reading a favorite book, cuddling with your favorite person while watching a movie, a scoop of ice cream, a bucket of French Fries, a playful time with your pet, coloring, painting, listening to your favorite old song during a long drive, an unexpected chocolate received, an unexpected hug by a loved one, a kiss by an adorable kid. We seem to expect something big and life changing to get us out of an upset phase and start smiling again.

We forget being thankful; to our creator as well as towards the people in our lives. We lack gratitude in our lives that makes us blind from the little pleasures that surround us. These minor things are not just needed to be delighted but these are the exact moments where true happiness lies.
