Happiness is Missing

Happiness is Missing

A Story by Pax
"

3 different perspective of what's missing. Is soulmate or its within ourselves? can you tell me your thoughts about it, if you may? all the good and the bad sides, i want to know it.

"

 

If you decide to be happy then you’re just wearing it just like a façade. The question is, are you really happy of what you have?

 

You're happy because you have everything money can buy and everyone are enjoying your company. But are you really happy with their company? It seems they only see you as fun and someone who can pay their food and entertainment. With all that do you ever find someone that will truly made you happy and would willing to give up all the riches you have?

 

You’re happy because you achieved something. You have done this and that, everything your mind can solve and achieved. Was that really enough for you? Is there something missing you didn’t achieve?

 

You're happy because you have something to work hard for. You work hard for the future, never minding the current state. You tend to forget small things like giving yourself a break and give love back to those who love and cherish what you do. Have you really question yourself after you achieve the top; are you really happy that along the way you have something missing and forgot something that you left behind just to be there?

 

Happiness can be big or small, can you find it?

Interesting perspectives on happiness.
Questions that have their partial answers from those that resonate with each perspective.
Personally, happiness to me is not dependant on anything without.. for me it is within.. in itself
Keep asking questions ..

there is a gift, some have it some dont, this gift is the source of happiness, that gift is; understanding life as a short trip with an end which is death. if you believe in that, you will be satisfied with what you have...

When reading your work, one may take away a graphic image of what is the real reason of being. And I think this is a fine piece of work.

thanks my friend.
I once read that the happiest people are those who build something from the ground up. Like a furniture maker who cuts down the tree, saws it up, cuts the wood lengths, crafts the chair and finishes it. Or a cook who raises a garden picks her own vegetables and make a dish from them.
I don't know if this is true, but it's something to think about.

You're welcome.
I really love this, and I was thinking the whole time while reading your outstanding poem! I call you a "true" writer since you have your audience wondering with the words that you put out there for them. Happiness shouldn't be a thing that's bought with money or people that only like your company for what you do have. That's an excellent point that you made! Being happy should be about cherishing the small and big things in life that you shouldn't take forgranted. That's the message I find behind this piece of yours! Also, this is my favorite of yours :)

Mistakes: Whenever you said "your" happy, it should be "you're" since it's not in possessive form. Also, in the sentence when it said "It seem they only see you as fun and someone who can pay they're food and entertainment". Maybe say "seems" and "they're" should be "their" since it's in possessive form.

Other than those minor mistakes, outstanding job! It'll be added to my library :D

Ah happiness, the infinite goal people spend their whole lives chasing. For me happiness is momentary, it never lasts forever. Things make you happy. Someone smiles at you and for a moment it makes you happy. You buy something, achieve something and for moment it makes you happy. I think what we should work towards is getting to a place where we have joy in our lives, the kind of joy that gets you through the rough times and keeps you going. Joy is stability and happiness is a roller coaster. We’re emotional things, human being; to expect to be happy all the time is to condemn ourselves to a life of disappointment and heartbreak and that’s just not helpful.

I have not got to the top happiness has been hard for me to achieve....possibly because I missed and forgot something or someone along the way..........this piece has certainly given me food for thought!

sure, take you time my friend.
Interesting thought....

Happiness that is quantified by material possessions or physical actions is not happiness at all, but merely an illusion, a sensation created by our own ego. True happiness is a choice each individual person makes, a state of mind in the way we perceive all things. Thus size is not relevant, for when one chooses to open themselves up to true happiness, both the ant and the elephant will be seen as good.
