BEING HAPPY🤍

 Happiness is a state of mind. You are solely responsible for your happiness.  You can't expect to be happy all the time, you have to accept that you will have moments that make you unhappy. Happiness is not something that happens to us, it's something we choose. The people around us are not responsible for our happiness and it's up to us to find happiness in small things like a good meal, a walk in nature, or a good book. When we find happiness, we should share it with the people around us. We should not always expect others to make us happy. If you feel like you are unhappy, try to be a little more mindful and focus on what makes you happy instead of what makes other people happy. We often think that we need to wait for something to happen to be happy, but in reality, we need to stop expecting and start accepting. Happiness lies everywhere. It's not just about being happy all the time, it's about finding happiness in the small things that happen every day. It's about appreciating what you have and who you are.

One day a scientist was asked to create a machine that would make people happy. He tried and tried, but always failed. One day, He was at the beach with his girlfriend and they saw an old man who had a smile on his face. they noticed he was carrying a small box. They walked up to him and asked what he was doing. He said he's making people happy by giving them boxes that are filled with happiness. They were intrigued so we asked him how he does it. He said he just makes people happy by giving them boxes with things they love, like some chocolate, some flowers, some wine, etc. He said if you give someone something they like, it'll make them happy. And that's correct. No machine or tablet can give happiness to people. It's the small things that make people happier. 

If you don’t know what makes you happy, ask yourself these questions:

  • What brings me joy? 
  • Do I like to do this for myself or for others?  
  • With whom I'm happy?
  • What is important to me? 
  • What am I doing with my life that is fulfilling and joyful?
By answering all these questions you can find where your happiness lies.

“Rules for happiness: something to do, someone to love, something to hope for.”- Immanuel Kant

NOT ALL MEN😌

Not all men are shadows in the night,   Some carry lanterns, spreading light.   The bus driver who paused as I ran,   A stranger who reached out, lending a hand.   The teacher who taught with patience and care,   The childhood friend who was always there.   The shopkeeper who smiled despite the strain,   The kind soul who shared their umbrella in rain.   The colleague who eased a daunting task,   The mentor who answered the questions I asked.   The doctor who stayed long past their time,   The neighbor who shared their food in kind.   The policeman who guided me when I was lost,   The husband who loved me at no thought of cost.   The father who prayed for me The brother who stayed with me  Not all men take; some give and provide, Not all men fall; some rise with pride. Not all men wound; some heal with care, Not all men leave; some always stay ...

LITTLE THINGS THAT MATTERS 😌

Some days just feel too long and heavy. Not because something big happened, but because there were too many small things accumulating. That’s exactly how my day was—tiring, stressful, and my mind was already full of tomorrow’s to-do list. After work, I went to my usual restaurant. It’s a small, familiar place I visit often. I didn’t need to look at the menu. As always, I asked the chef for my favorite bread omelette—even though it’s not on the menu, they always make it for me. I found my seat and waited. Ten minutes passed. No food. That wasn’t normal. The restaurant was clearly busier than usual. The staff were rushing around, handling orders, and somehow, my simple request got lost in the chaos. A waiter came over, looking a little apologetic. “Sorry, we missed your order. Can I take it again?” he asked. Honestly, I was too tired to wait again. I told him so. But he said gently, “Just two more minutes.” Something about his tone made me stay. A few minutes later, the bread omelette fi...

The Hidden Cost of “Free"😶‍🌫️

In a world full of choices, we are often drawn to things that seem "free" or inexpensive. Somewhere, I read that: "NETFLIX doesn't cost Rs. 499,   It costs you your time.   Coke doesn't cost Rs. 30,   It costs you your health.   Social media isn't free,   It costs you your focus. THERE IS ALWAYS A HIDDEN COST!! Yes, it's absolutely true. In all these cases, the upfront cost may seem small, but the true cost is far greater—your time, health, focus, and even privacy. We live in a world where convenience often disguises the real cost. The truth is, nothing is truly free. Whether it's your attention, your health, or your time, there's always something being traded. So, next time something seems free, pause and ask: What am I truly paying for? Because the price tag is never the full story. It’s the hidden costs that we often fail to notice until it’s too late. Remember: If you're not paying for the product, you are the product. ---------
