Happiness

The worse the economy, the happier the people. Hi there, it’s been a while since the last time in which I posted a blog. I’ve been meaning to post some new articles but time has been my worst enemy. I’ve noticed a lot of “deadening” around town as the economy stays the way it is now. People aren’t as hyper as they used to be. People aren’t as excited as they used to be. People are just back to the pure essence of humanity. Good-hearted human-beings.

When ever people lose their materialistic items, they become clearer about their intentions and more of their ‘good’ side comes out. People become ‘real’.

Not a lot of people are happy in this world. This world is built on such a system that not a lot of people are happy, and not a lot of people are sad as well. Most of us fall in the middle, whether you consider that fortunate or not.  You might write a comment back to me saying that you know a lot of sad people, or happy. Either way, my reply to you is that it all depends on the way we define happiness and sadness in our lives. Some of us consider getting a hug happiness, while others look for cars and luxurious materialistic items to be happy, or at least THINK they’ll be happy. The poor dreams of becoming rich. Not a lot of the poor will transform into rich people but some have and still do. These people end up with a lot of mental problems. By that, I do not necessarily mean “going crazy” even though some actually do. I just mean that they have so much to worry about now that they had no idea about back when they were poor. Being rich doesn’t provide you with happiness, in fact it takes away from your happiness count. You’re no longer social as much as you are thinking business. You’re no longer friends with people because they’re friends, but because they’re FUTURE CLIENTS. That, alone, can cost you your bestfriends, relatives, and possibly all of your family and friends as well.

The happier the people around you are, the more sad they are deep inside. Their smiles cover their thoughts and pain, and in their mentality, heal them too. Whenever a friend tells you a joke, smile. The only reason someone would want to tell you a joke is either because they want your attention, or they want to see you smile. So, go ahead and smile, you’ll make them happy either way.

You’ve probably heard this about a million times before, well maybe a little less, but they say that money can’t buy happiness. I agree. Money buys you everything but emotions. Buy the best things in life and you’ll get over them the day after, maybe the month after, if not, then years after, but you eventually will do that and miss the emotional part of life. We were born to express and release emotions. Get rich, make your money, but please, I beg you, stay good.

Much love,
