A Simple Guide To Happiness

A SIMPLE GUIDE TO HAPPINESS “It’s good to be just plain happy; it’s a little better to know that you’re happy; but to understand that you're happy and know why and how and still be happy, be happy in the being and the knowing, well that is beyond happiness, that is bliss.” Henry Miller, Writer Happiness: "A feeling of great pleasure, contentment, joy, glad, pleased". - Webster's Dictionary If Happiness: "A feeling of great pleasure, contentment, joy, glad, pleased". - Webster's Dictionary If you were to ask 100 people what they want most out of life, almost all will say: “To be happy.” On the other hand, about 70% of people will tell you that they feel 'stressed out' a lot of the time. Most people who consult a doctor with symptoms such as tiredness, headaches and chest pains are actually showing the effects of being overanxious or depressed, and they do not say they are happy!. It seems that everybody would like to be happy, but ‘happiness’ like ‘stress’, is a concept which people do not generally stop to think deeply about. Everybody uses the words but few people know exactly what they mean by them. Probably everybody means something a little different. The result? Most people don't have any specific plans to increase or measure their overall happiness level—other then perhaps buying a lottery ticket. Most of us simply wait for happiness to happen. "When the mortgage is paid off, I'll be happy," or "When I get married, divorced or when .....". It's perhaps an unusual person who has a specific plan to be as happy as possible. One reason might be that the word has so many different meanings, that things we thought would make us happy often don't and that we forget that to be 'happy' means going through periods of stress and sadness as well.
