The Need to Be Happy and Happier

A Peak Into My Thoughts:

After a year of putting up this blog and forgetting about it until a year later, I suddenly thought of sharing with you my reflections on the happiness book I'm currently crazy about. It's called "More Happiness, 100 Ways to a Happier Life" by C.C. Salonga. Thanks to this, my blog is alive and kicking again!

Why did I even buy this book?

Does it mean that I'm sad or unhappy at all with my life that I need to purchase something like a guide book to tell me how I can be happy?

I would've thought that. But no. If you think like that, and if I think like that, we would all be hindering our self growth and, the better life we could all have. Instead, we are harboring the mindsets and lifestyles of people who get older in their lives and eventually dies with regret and sour-bitter life - denying themselves of living and seeing the best that is yet to happen in their lives. Why does this happen? It happens when people close their hearts and minds to change - a change for the better, and for the best.

At one point in our lives, we are all in a hurry. As adults living in fast-paced city and focusing on making a living, there is always one point in our lives wherein we forget on how and why we live as human being. Here is an ironic thing, we work to be happy. We work to provide for ourselves and our loved ones so we can all be happy. But suddenly work becomes reason why we become unhappy. How can this be? When things get out of control, and things are not what it seem to be, what do we do? Do we quit it all? or quit life? Certainly not. Which is why we need a certain "pause" if we feel like we're missing something in life.

While we are busy working towards our professional advancement or growing our business, let's also be busy in nourishing our personal characteristics and improving our attitude in the best possible way. As merely journeyers in our borrowed life, we should strive and seek for living the happiest way we can. Doing what we love to do, and not just what we have to do. Instead of rendering unnecessary overtime work, spend the time in a sumptuous dinner with family or friends. Quit the job you don't want to do, go for what you think you can do best even if others say no and if even if others look down on you. Life is all about choices. Your life is a product of all your choices.

In fact, you can be happy now. Right now, at this moment.

If you will choose to be happy, then you will be. :)

There are no dreams that are too high to achieve.

This is what I believe.

If we pull them down from the clouds,

and put it where our arms can reach it.

If we,

slowly,

build the steps to the stairs

that we need in order to climb

up high.

If we,

translate those dreams

into goals and work

our way to attain these goals

while maintaining the positive outlook.

Could you?

Believe in yourself that you could do great things, and you'll be surprised that you could.

Walk out of your door and explore.
