Where To Look For Happiness?

What is happiness?Where to look for it??Is it situational or always present and you need to realise it?A few words about happiness-
"Well,my thought is that its a state of mind that decides in what mood we.are.What thought we feed to our mind,its reflect our mood accordingly.
Find a quiet place and listen. It should be very quiet. The only sound you should hear is your heart beating. Listen. Peer deep down inside your heart. Do you see someone that holds a special place in your heart? Maybe they have always been there when you needed them; maybe they offered words of encouragement; taught you a lesson; comforted you when you were sick; praised you on your accomplishments. Make this their lucky day.You have the POWER to spread happiness. A quick note or a kind word is all it takes to bring a smile and lasting memory to someone very special."

"Happiness is not in our circumstances but in ourselves. It is not something we see, like a rainbow, or feel, like the heat of a fire. Happiness is something we are."
To realise it,I have enlisted few steps for to feel happiness:-
  • Look for your mom.Lay your head in her lap and feel her pat on your head.This would definitely give you heavenly pleasure.I always forget my anxieties and tensions.....I feel sense of contentment and pure happiness.
  • Where ever you are,scan your faces around you.I amn't kidding.Some people can really read your faces and there are times ,when strangers gesture you to smile (when you are sad)
  • Try getting a brownie.Warm it and add sinful quantity of chocolate sauce over it.Sinful way to melt your heart.Please don't over indulge in it....
  • Go for massage or spa therapy for an relaxing and soothing experience.
  • Pen down some of your childhood memories and see smile lightens up your face.
  • If possible,own a pet and spend sometime daily by talking to it.Believe me ,they do understand us very well.I love puppies and fish..
  • Get some "I-Time" .Lie down with no thoughts going on in mind ...Try not to move at all.Its good if catch some sleep in this mode...
  • Switch off your mobile(Self explanatory)
  • Get in touch with your old friend.
  • Indulge in retail therapy(window shopping would do as well)...
  • Experiment cooking a new dish or a dessert.Spread smiles...
  • Blog or try your hand at poetry.Its not that difficult.
  • Participate in your hobby(mine is dancing anytime)
  • Do baby sitting or play with toddlers.
  • Floral therapy-Decorate your home with flowers or let them adorn your hair.

Nice posts... really good ways to relax and feel really happy and nice.

Unfortunately, most of the things you mentioned is not possible for one reason or another. But yes, I enjoy writing the most when I feel sad (not exactly poetry though).

By the way, does this post mean that you are feeling sad nowadays? ;)
