Meaningful Words

Never explain yourself to anyone.
Because the person who likes you doesn't need it,
and the person who dislikes you won't believe it.


We make them cry who care for us.
We cry for those who never care for us.
And we care for those who will never cry for us.

This is the truth of life., its strange but true.
Once you realise this, its never too late to change.


Don't make promise when you are in joy.
Don't reply when you are sad.
Don't take decision when you are angry.

Think twice.., Act Wise.

If you do not explain yourself to anyone, then how he/she can know what you are thinking about?

What makes us happy

All parents want and do their best to make their children healthy and happy. It is about the only thing that seems to matter as far as our babies are concerned. But happiness is fleeting and it comes and goes. The harder we want it the more it alludes us. It is very easily overshadow by sadness, worry, fear, pain, hopelessness, and disappointments. Happiness is a momentary thing and we can never be happy all the time. Certain things always makes all of us happy:

being loved and appreciated (relationships- family, friends, colleagues)

getting what we want

self pride at reaching high goals or expectations

discovering or getting new things that amaze us

humor

making others happy

looking forward to things or events

We all want to be loved and appreciated. It allows us to love our self. A smile is a display of happiness and is contagious. A smile makes us attractive and it attracts people to us. Humor makes us smile and laugh. Laughter gives us a feeling of well being and satisfaction. We find humor when hidden truths are suddenly unexpectedly uncovered. Happiness is not so much having what we like, but rather appreciating and using what we have. Happiness is not so much doing things we like, but rather doing things we know and doing them well. Being thankful is acknowledging our good fortune that momentarily made us happy. Thankfulness extends and prolongs our happiness and makes the recipient of our thanks happy as well.

What can make us happy are good relationships, things we receive, events we experience, feelings we have and things and events we look forward to. As a guideline some of them are listed below in the table and later expanded on. Many things/events/feelings that might make us happy in the short term make us sad in the long term. In the same way, many things/events/feelings that might make us sad initially end up making us happy in the long term. You can rate the level of happiness of things/events/feelings by rating their usefulness.

Conclusion

The true level of happiness is determined by the situation we are in at that moment and our attitude to it. When we are in need, it is difficult to be happy but it takes very little to make us happy. When thirsty and hungry, a little water and simple meal makes us happy. When unemployed, going to a new job even in a traffic jam makes us happy. When we are homeless, any shelter makes us happy. When we are lonely, meeting a stranger gives us joy. When we are in pain, soothing of pain makes us happy. When we have more than what we need we still want more and it is easy to be unhappy and to fear losing what we have. It becomes more difficult to be pleased. In this sense, the town fool with nothing to lose might well be a happier person, in the true sense of happiness, than the town mayor.

How we measure our success determines if it makes us happy or not.

At age 4 success is . . .not peeing in your pants.
