On a quest for happiness

Source

I thought severally about what happiness could really mean, although it is a very common word people use often.

Therefore to me, happiness is a state of mind, that state of mind where everything appease to you. It might be as a result of certain action by people or something you do yourself that gets you to that state of mind.

Happiness is what everyone pray or crave for, if possible for the whole of their lifetime.But is it really possible to be happy through out one's lifetime, that is, never a single moment of sadness? I do not think so. Even a baby gets sad if they feel uncomfortable or do not get what they want, not to mention adults that goes through a lot or is coming back from a lot 😄.

People do different things to make them be in this state of mind. A kid playing away all day gives him or her happiness.
For adults, it could be getting a job, making sales and profit, getting married, partying, shopping, making money and all that gets them into this state of mind.

There was this friend of mine that is always moody. She is never interested in anything fun. When it is time to go out, she will always say she has no energy for catching fun.

I was like who does not like taking a break from ups and downs of life. The more you carry life matter on your head, the more depressed you can get. This I always tell her.

We had to sit her down to discuss what is that thing that is always making her moody. Then she said she is not so confident about her body and if she were slimmer, she will be more confident and happy.

So for her it is body goals that will give her that happiness she wanted at that time. Then I told her if cutting down on your size is what will make you unmoody, you have to work for it. Exercising will help and then cutting down on junk foods to will help her alot. That was my advice to her.

She started in the quest to lose weight, took so seriously that she even enrolled in a gym. The fact that she even started the journey to lose weight gave her that boost in confidence, knowing well that she is going to achieve the result she is looking forward to.

That was my friend's quest. Like I said earlier, different things make different people happy.
Some do not even care about their sizes, so far you wire money into their account, its euphoria all the way.
