The happiness journey
Happiness is not a destination. It is a journey and unfortunately, most people do not realize this.
Somebody says, “I will be really happy if I get a Mercedes Benz,” while for somebody else it is being in Paris in front of the Eiffel Tower.
When they arrive at their destin ation, are they really happy?
For the moment, yes! But the next day, they have a new desire that starts a new thirst for joy.
Happiness is not about achieving a dream or desire. It is a journey, not a destination. Unless you enjoy every moment of the path, reaching the peak will not be of much consequence.
The truly happy people enjoy every moment of life. That is true happiness. Others, who are happy only on days of celebration, their birthday, Christmas, and New Year, remain unhappy for most of their life .
To them, happiness is all about that moment of achievement or celebration.
Alas, they do not live happy lives!
