Create Happiness

Hello my people! How are you all? I hope you guys are enjoying the holy month of Ramadan, if you're a Muslim. Not that you can't enjoy if you aren't a Muslim. Ramadan is all about spreading goodness and making God and people around you happy.
Happy. What is being happy towards you? What is happiness for you? Well, for me, happiness is satisfaction. It is gratification. It's accepting the fact that whatever you're blessed with is to be thanked for and whatever you do not have is to be patient and uncomplaining for. Happiness is like a drug. The more you have it, the more you would want to have it. This drug gives you pleasure and gives you feelings of Euphoria. Happiness is something that not all have, just like an addiction for drugs. Not all have it, but someday or the other, you covet to have a taste of it.
If you think money buys happiness, then I must say that it's pretty much delusional. And trust me on this one. Over the years I've learnt how money can buy comfort, peace of mind, status, anything but happiness. Some people spend their whole lives trying to be successful. Creating a world of their own because they think, the more productive they are, the more successful they'd become and hence the more happy they would be. In the process their inner child dies without them even realizing. They have to find themselves until they lose themselves completely. After some time, they realise how foolish they were. At the end of this path they had chosen to walk on, they realise how unhappy they are. The happiness that they were trying to find in the way, flew higher than they were flying. Happiness is like dry sand. The more tightly you clench your fist to hold it, the more you start losing it. The lighter your fist is, the more you'll be able to hold it in your hand.
Happiness doesn't come to you served in a plate. You have to work on and for it. You have to CREATE it. Around you, beside you. You need to let go of things, materialistic or not, people, habits, everything that you think is coming in your way of seeking happiness. You need to flush off all the negativities, all the toxins you behold, whether in your body or in your life. Surround yourself with people you make you feel like it's you. If there's someone in your life who makes you want to hate yourself, those are the kind of people you need to get rid of. Envelope yourself with people who not only you love but who make you fall in love with yourself. Only then, you would truly feel happy as warm fuzzies. Are you feelin' me here?!
I'll wind up by saying that you're only happy when you're truly contented. Find your way to contentment. It'll be worth it.
Good Luck!
