Is There A Substitute For Happiness?

An Australian survey found that 77% of Let It Snow people would prefer New Scooby Doo Comedy Movies be happy than Fat Albert This begs the question: Were the wealthy people the ones who preferred to be happy rather than wealthy or the happy people those who are poor and do not want to lose their happiness by becoming wealthy.

The person who made mention of the article was promoting her forthcoming lecture about how to be happy. It was partly her claim that happiness is the next step after having achieved a degree of wealth. Basically she was saying that regardless of everything else the one thing human beings craved was happiness.

This woman went on to further claim that happiness itself was not the be all, to end all, because there were more important ideals in life like self-examination and then understanding the process of striving. The one thing people really did not need to do was strive for happiness because once Purchasemoviehqchgdpsev become happy, life suddenly becomes meaningless. There is nothing to live for any more. Effectively, she appeared to be saying, "Happiness is a state of nothingness where you become one with the nothing and have no need to exist anymore."

Personally, I have to disagree with this woman. Not because I have a different philosophy in life, but because I have obviously had a different experience in life. You see I am happy, but I am not nothing and I am have not ceased to exist. The reason I am happy is that having found out where happiness exists and I know how to live in happiness. I can enjoy life all the more without having to strive for something that I am not able to find.

That woman did not know what happiness was. She had not found happiness. She only has some philosophy which is nothing more than a reflection of her own sadness which she wants other people to come and participate in. It is like Aerosmith after wind, or like a dog trying to catch its tail and being having to be content with the fact it will always fail.

Contentment is like happiness in a way. But contentment is not happiness, because happiness is more active and energized than contentment. Only there is not a sense of urgency associated with happiness. What I experience is joy. A dynamic that adds spark to my day. Also I experience peace and another warm feeling that bathes my soul.

It is true that I am not striving anymore to find happiness. And it is true that I am more of the "live and let live" type. But it is also true that life is an adventure for me. Every day is a new day. Every day is a fun day. There is no need to deny myself pleasures any more, because I find pleasure in whatever I do. This is happiness. Happiness is not being in a state of nothingness. It is a feeling admittedly. It is a feeling of being at peace and having a love for all things that are good. But it is also energized with joy.

The suggestion that we cannot be happy and have a purpose or any meaning in our lives could only come from person who has not experienced true happiness. You see, the lecturer whom I am talking about claims happiness can only be a by product of a good life within a good society. However, I know happiness once found is real in any society. You or anybody else are able to experience the feelings of euphoria and bliss and inner warmth, if you truly desire to know the One who gives it.
