You know what can you do?? You can be happy, you can be very happy and you can be very very happy and keep being happy. You can also be sad, very sad and be depressed as well. But is it really worth the energy being sad?? That’s certainly a very subjective matter I believe. But if you ask what I actually believe, I would tell you not to be sad for a single split of a second if you can. And I can also give like millions of reasons actually being more specific you can give that millions of reasons to be happy all the time. Let’s talk about some of the matter I always wonder just to see if I am very irrational.
Firstly, you are nowhere near to those unfortunate people out there in the world who is constantly suffering to earn the daily portion of food they need to survive. To what extend those kids in Africa should expect from their future comparing to your future? Do you think that’s a relief?? Well, I do. If you are reading this article then you must have electricity, a Computer or a smart device, an internet connection which I don’t know what percentage of people have access to. Do you find yourself lucky now?? I certainly do.
You want to know what sadness is. For this, you might have to go to a hospital seeing people who are fighting every day to live a day more. Or look at their families having the fear on their faces to lose their closed ones anytime. Do you feel the gratitude to be healthy and being able to have the strength to do whatever you want to do in and with your life?? You do or not, I do.
Most of us say or think that we’ve gone through a lot. We are the ones who have endured most pain in life. That is also a subjective matter. It is very usual to think such as we have no idea about other peoples’ pain. And I’m sure we would basically hate having other peoples’ pain in ours. Shouldn’t we be happy instead having given that much strength in ourselves to endure that amount of pain that we think we’ve gone through? Someone said that pain makes you stronger. I hope it works for you, which it should otherwise you are just doomed.
Each of us has tons of positive and negative parts, incidents, experiences, people, habits and, so on in our lives. Being a Capricorn I am a pessimist. I am ready for the worsts but I’ll try for the bests always. Now about this, some of you may think you hate that negative parts, you cannot bear it as it’s so hard and that is why you feel sad. Now question is, what do want others to see in you? The skills that you have or the flaws you carry? If you go for an interview you’ll definitely try to highlight the strong areas of your expertise right? Now tell me why is that? If someone judges you for one of your bad habits, a skill you don’t have, how would you exactly feel? I think our life works the same way. If you count the blessings of your life, it’ll be more than enough to be happy yourself and make other people happy with the happy vibe too. And at the same time you can also be best friends with your sadness to give it the power of sucking your life out. The choice is always yours if you want to see the glass half full or half empty.
Now, I have some questions. Do you think you know yourself the best? Or do you think you are there for yourself when you need? Most of us expect people to be there for us, or to know us better. But how many of us actually know ourselves? Because if we actually know ourselves and be there for ourselves when we need, we should never be sad. We’ll certainly know what makes us happy and encourage ourselves to move on happily as there will always be a choice.
Do you know that also an unwilling smile can make you happy? Let me tell you why. Smile sends a happy signal to your brain which manipulates you to be happy. And after that you actually feel happy. Let’s try it once. Come up with even just a fake smile, and then see. Do you feel happy? I believe so. Someone also said that smile is the best jewelry you can wear. Are you wearing it today? Now?
Happy smiling.

As alway, happiness is just a matter of choice. Whatever you got, if you choose to be happy you can do so. If people chooses to be lonely then they have a problem. The reason for sadness is dissatisfaction and this is due to too much expectation. Its usual that a human could not have everything they wanted and how they wanted it to be. The key is acceptance.
