For many friends, creating a stellar career and finding love seem to be the necessary ingredients to find happiness.
Lately, due to my unemployment, I have been able to observe how people let not achieving career goals or a life partner get them down.
Rather than focusing on voids, why can't our lives be about celebrating what is?
Why do we live in this culture that is always chasing after what might not rather than bestowing gratitude on ourselves for simply being?
Rather than reading about how much money other people are making or watching unrealistic romance movies, why doesn't everyone know about the science research that proved the only indicator of happiness is gratitude, not even health?!
Feeling the pain of others makes me sad because I don't want to deny their feelings. At the same time, I wish everyone can let go of that pain and focus on enjoying the present. By not expecting and simply live moment by moment, happiness will come in the form of peace within.
