IDEA OF HAPPINESS: 

Idea of happiness depends upon what a person has at the very specific moment.  A person may think that without wealth there would be no happiness, so he would try to get more and more wealth.  But if he be contended and have satisfaction with what he has, there is happiness in it. One cannot get happiness by laboring for it.  Happiness comes as naturally and as refreshingly as the morning air.  A person even can get happiness by enjoying the work in hand.  Our high hopes and soaring ambitions often make us unhappy when they are not fulfilled.

Happiness in general excludes envy and jealousy.  Do not look what others have, rather remain satisfied with what you have.  The habit of comparing and contrasting, and desire to become what others are often causes a sorrowful heart.

Happiness even can be found in watching birds chattering and butterflies flying on the colorful flowers or merely by looking at the beauties of Nature.  In fact one can find happiness in every moment by absorbing, being consider it as very important. 

Happiness is a state of mind and not a possession.  It is a product of imagination and not of striving.  It is to be enjoyed through spirit and not through senses.  It is felt and not seen though transpires from the subject. 

Enjoying the peace of mind is the happiest moment of one’s life on the other hand hankering after the material things and worldly desires takes to unhappiness.  It is best above all that we should do our duties without thinking or expecting results.  Duties which we have been destined to perform should be our aim, this makes us not to overjoy on success and frustrate on unsuccessfulness.
