The Other Side of Happy
You guessed it right…
What is the Other side of Heaven? Hell
What is the other side of Success? Defeat or failure
What is the other side of Love? Hate
What is the other side Rich? Poor
Almost everything in this world has its opposite. To know one you’ve got to know the other. We all choose to be at the positive pole of things. This is because happiness is in that end. However, no matter how much we choose to be at the positive side of the two ends we at times find ourselves in the wrong side. Why? We ask ourselves and the people whom we wish could give us answers that we like.
Intended or not, sadness gives us an understanding of what happiness is and is not. it helps us and motivates us to move towards that end of the stick, to do our best to lift ourselves out of that rut. Some people sometimes wish that someone can help them move from sad to happy. Sometimes those people come, sometimes they don’t. When they don’t, the sad people stay sad. That is the sad thing about waiting for people to make you happy. Its like putting your fate in the hands of other people. The pursuit of happiness is easier when we accept that we are responsible for becoming our own catalist to happiness. If we anchor our happiness to what we hope other people would do to us, we are setting ourselves for failure.
What am I saying?
Help without expecting to be helped back. You will find the sense of high of being able to help without asking anything in return.
Love without conditions, and you will liberate yourself from holding back.
Fight a good fight but be willing to accept your loss, that will allow you to fight again tomorrow.
Be thankful for what you have rather than getting bitter for what you don’t have.
Happiness is a high that is all in your mind. You can be happy if you want. It is a choice.
