H A P P I N E S S
I guess it's a word that is very important to every single person. A state of mind that people want to achieve. One thing that people would die for just to have it.
Some say you are happy if you have everything that you want. You're happy if you could do anything. You're happy if you have freedom. You're happy if you have this, you're happy if you have that.
In my own opinion, happiness is more than just that. Happiness doesn't only rely on material things, freedom, etc. In order to be happy, you must also take your own actions into consideration. Am I doing the right thing? Am I on the right path? Do I have control on myself? Well these questions probably need to be answered. For you to be happy, you must act according to your reason. You must know what is good or bad. Your goodness should come out naturally. You should be able to control his own self. Not going overboard, and not going less that that. You should be able to give or do just the right amount of everything. Balance is essential. Because when we start losing control of everything, losing balance in our lives, that's when we end up destroying ourselves. And that can never make you happy.
If you focus on the good and start staying away from the bad, then I guess that's when you'll become happy. Knowing that you're not hurting anyone. That what you're doing is actually for the better.
Happiness, I think, also includes putting GOD in the center of your life. He knows what is the best for us. We have to act according to His plans, to His laws. If He plays a big part in our life, then that alone can make you happy.
I think, there's also one important factor to be considered in order for us to be happy.
That is, if we have LOVE in our hearts. Love is good. If you have this in your heart, then life will never be miserable. There will never be sadness. But, moderation should also take place in loving. Too much of it, sometimes, cannot be good. Well, not only love. Too much of everything is bad. That is why I said, we must learn to take control.
But if we have the right amount of love, then the world will be a better place to live in. It will be a happy place for every man. Because love can make us do extraordinary things. It can make our lives better. Of course, if you love someone, you wouldn't hurt them. And that is considered a good act. Loving one another is considered a virtuous act.
So if you love someone, you won't be able hurt them. It is good because it's the right thing. It is according to God's law. Then that is the time when you consider yourself happy.
Well I guess, happiness is deserved by every person in this world. It doesn't depend on material goods or money or freedom. It all goes down to the goodness that's in you. To all the love inside your heart. And to the role that God plays in your life. As long as you have the right amount of these things, the balance that you need, moderation and control, then nothing else matters. You will be happy.
I do not agree that happiness is absolute. That your life needed to be perfect and complete in order to be happy. Sometimes, people can be happy at one time then sad the next. That isn't bad. Because life is not perfect. So everyone has the chance to be happy anytime they want, even if it is only for a short time.
So.. I guess we just have to:
Be good. Live right. Love much. Have faith. Take control.
Then life will be better. And you can have as much happiness in your life as you want.
Haay. This is my PD paper. I hope this make sense. I'm tired. I'll go sleep na. Goodnite world!
