The Key to Happiness

Today i felt a heaviness in my heart.Although everything went fine,i lacked something inside.Life has taught me many things and i know that i still need to learn a lot..After all my life has only begun.Like the words in the poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost.."i have miles and miles to go before i sleep"...

I feel that life is truly like a roller coaster ride, it drives us completely crazy at times, makes us scream aloud with both fear and thrill, twisting and turning us through the valley of joy and sorrow. Life is like Bangalore's weather one moment the sun shines so hard and the next moment rain falls down unexpectedly like cats and dogs.

Same way in our lives, we sometimes feel like as though the heaven has opened its doors wide open for us and we feel on top of the world, dancing merrily on our toes and the very next day, something dreadful happens that causes us to topple down from the top to the hard hitting ground ruthlessly.

I learnt one thing that whenever u expect or hope something, u have to learn to prepare yourself to endure the outcome of that hope.The result may either not be upto our expectations(which happens mostly) or it may just be above our expectations(rarely, takes us by a pleasant surprise).For me,whenever i have expressed any desire or hope to achieve something badly, it mostly doesn't come out true.I don't get to reap the rewards for my hard work.So, like always i feel disappointed as to why it didn't turn out as i expected and then i become gloomy and sad and finally have a conversation with God :) who no doubt never fails to leave my side.

I have realized that the key to happiness lies in our way to handle various adverse situations.If u always feel positive inside,u will never let happiness leave by your side.After all, happiness is just a state of your mind.Its always in your control.Handling upsetting situations with a sweet smile :) and a "Never Say Die" attitude is the best way to beat sadness.

I know it is easy to say and specially sounds great to the ears :) and u may say that it becomes difficult sometimes to keep up your spirits even in upsetting situations.After all we are humans rite,we will feel pain and disappointed with life at some or the other point of our lives.But still what we can do is try, try our best to come out of it.

Nothing is impossible.It all lies within us how to accomplish something.If u want something, go for it, work your heart out to achieve it and if u still don't get it, then atleast u can say that u had given ur best shot.Too bad, it didn't work out and move on ahead with a more passionate approach to life."Where there is a will, there is always a way"...And on this positive note, i am signing
off for today...Adios...
