What it means to be happy…
Happiness is a weird thing, when you have it you take it for granted and don't even notice how happy you are. But when you feel as if you don't have happiness in your life it's when you want it the most and when we try to do anything and everything to obtain that happiness.
So many things in life can bring us down and drag us to some of our lowest moments but it's the things in life that just simply put a smile on our face and make you feel truly happy inside.
No one knows what the true meaning of happiness even is, because it's different for every one. Some things may make me happy that do not make others feel the same way. It's frustrating when we don't feel happy or feel as if we can not find that happiness. It's like we worry our whole lives to find this one thing that makes us happy or this one person; when in all reality why can't more than one thing make us overall happy?
What I have experienced over the years is losing happiness and trying to find it again. And everyday I noticed I was finding little things that slowly but surely are and will make me feel happy. I don't think it's something we have to set out to find, I think we find happiness when we least expect it which makes it so much more enjoyable.
But what does it mean to "be happy?" Does it mean you have to have someone special in your life, or a lot of money? It could mean so many different things, but in my opinion being happy and finding happiness is waking up every morning and feeling good about yourself, loving yourself, and knowing that whatever the day may throw at you that may tear you down, but one of the many things that make you happy will turn that frown around and help you get through that moment.
We all strive to find this meaning of happiness, but what does it really mean?
