Happiness

This might come as a cliche but do we really know what happiness or true happiness entails? Often we are moved by the material things of this world and we perceive them as our source of happiness. We tend to worship the material things of this world or turn other human beings into our source of happiness. Most people's happiness is dependant on the external things or friendships and relationships, no one ever takes the time to dig deep within and find their true happiness. I am going to try and share my opinion with regards to happiness, my experience with happiness and how i got to a point of appreciating myself and actually being happy with myself without external factors influencing how i feel about myself. Often we fail to realise that we are born whole and spend most of our lives if not all trying to find our source of happiness when its buried deep within us. If only we could get to a point whereby we realise that it is very vital that we find happiness within us, and stop trying to find it on material things of the world and other human beings in the process when all this cant fill that void we hurt those we love, we hurt those on our way to finding something that is within us and we were born with. Now ask yourself this questions, how old are you? How long have you been searching for that happiness? How many people have you hurt along the way? And for how long will you be going around looking for something that is buried within you? Your happiness was never embedded on anyone or anything, it has always been and always will be your responsibility. By: Olebogeng R Motsanana
