Every one of us wants to be happy but do we know the secret to attain this happiness? I suppose 9 out of 10 people will answer in the negative. Most of the people in this category are never happy because they always hanker after happiness. These people never feel content but are perpetually bent on chasing material goals in search of further happiness. In this way most of us are unable to achieve the true happiness in the real sense of the term.
We have to learn to balance our desire to realize true happiness. Human beings’ capacity to desire never comes to an end. People desire a lot many things in their life. It is not possible to attain all these desires but it’s possible to at least celebrate the desires that have been fulfilled. Be happy when you get the reason to be happy, because these reason may not come everyday. People should be happy when they get the chance for the same because those are the blessed people who get the chance. Say for example, if a poor man who lives in a miserable condition and earns a very meager amount. He can’t feed his family two meals a day. One day, by God’s grace he earns some extra money and can have the two meals for his family. So don’t you think he should be happy? Yes he should celebrate the happiness rather than think how he will feed his family the next day.
Too many desires lead to frustration because all your desires cannot be fulfilled. You need to have a healthy balance between desires and acceptance. Celebrate what you have and learn to accept that which you don’t have. We should not ignore the small happiness. In a dull life small happiness can be of great use. When you get bored by the monotonous life, what do you do? Arrange for some parties that will relieve you from the boredom and will give some reasons to be happy. Likewise there are many other ways to enjoy the happiness, but we have to crave for it.
It’s good to have desires in one’s life. Because desires give you the meaning to live your life in order to fulfill those desires. Desires accelerate the drive to do something in the lifetime. But one thing should be taken care of. Your desires should not take away all the pleasures of your life. If you have too many desires then you will always be concerned about fulfilling them. But you should not be so involved in fulfilling all of your desires that you don’t realize that some of your desires have been fulfilled already. In this haste you ignore the reasons to be happy. This is the importance of balancing the desires to realize the true happiness.
