Happiness

True happiness only comes from within. The human mind is complex and we radiate and send signals through our thought pattens be it negatively or positively and that Is why we often hear people say happiness cannot be bought but what's your take on that?
There is no limit to what one can achieve and that is why most people feel happy when they are successful, lucky or safe and all these cannot be bought.
That feeling you get when everything is going well, when your life is playing out as planned and you can't help but smile, when you are fulfilled, that is happiness.
No one but yourself can give you happiness!

Most people tend to find happiness in different spheres of life, some in their jobs, others in their relationships and the list goes on. But what if that job no longer serves you? What if that relationship brings you heartache in future?
People often say happiness is free, but the same people also said free things don't last, does that mean happiness doesn't last?
Let me tell you a story of a rich man who had everything he wanted in life, he had servants are his beck and call, he was blessed beyond measures, but sadly he was diagnosed with stomach cancer and his happiness was shattered, he thought he had everything that could make him happy in this life but that happiness turned to sadness when he discovered he won't live long enough to enjoy the things he found happiness in. He struggled for years and battled with cancer, just when he saw a ray of hope and began to feel happy again, cancer strucked back, this time taking his life.

My take on this story is that material things can make you happy for a while but true happiness is found within.
