Default In Pursuit Of Happiness :

IN PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS :

We convince ourselves that life will be better after
we get married, have a baby, then another.
Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough
and we'll be more content when they are.

After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with.
We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage.
We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our
spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer
car, are able to go on a nice vacation,or when we retire.

The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now.
If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges.
It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway.
Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have
and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special,
special enough to spend your time with...and remember that time
waits for no one.

So, stop waiting

--until your car or home is paid off
--until you get a new car or home
--until you go back to school
--until you lose ten pounds
--until you gain ten pounds
--until you finish school
--until you get a divorce
--until you get married
--until you have kids
--until you retire
--until summer
--until spring
--until winter
--until fall
--until you die


There is no better time than RIGHT NOW to be happy.

Happiness is a JOURNEY, not a destination.


So -- work like you don't need money,
Love like you've never been hurt,
And dance like no one's watching.

Default very true..

Hello Ashna,

Just read ur post and how true it is.
We never enjoy what we have right now, we don't enjoy what we have here, BUT we are always looking for it everywhere and we have fixed thought that happiness is when we reach there OR when we get things.........

so what happens to what we already have is something we realise ONLY after we loose it OR when the time passes.

We must learn to enjoy what we have NOW, the present.....

Like u said, There is no better time than RIGHT NOW to be happy!!!!!!!!!!!
