The pursuit of "happiness"!!

The movie taught me many things. Really, in life happiness is hard to find. Whatever you do, its not guaranteed that you will be happy. Even if you have all the riches of the world, if you are not happy, then what is use of that money? i have heard people saying so- "when we didn't have money, we were happier but now the almighty has given us enough money but he has snatched away the necessary happiness"... really, happiness is something which comes in our fundamental rights but they are taken away anytime... some are even deprived of that right.
                      Strange is the fate- When we were young, we were the king or queen of our home, but at that time what we thought was- "when are we going to grow up??" but now when we are grown up or growing up- we feel that -"ohh, i wish i were a 4 yr. old baby again!!" According to me happiness is, you are sitting under the shade of a coconut tree with a bunch of friends and in the background, soft music is being played.
                The degree, state of happiness varies from time to time..there is no well defined criteria for being happy... i mean , one may follow his near or dear ones commands so that they do not badger him... according to him, its happiness... but the real fact is - he is killing himself... and there are people , for whom happiness is following his own instincts ... even if he's wrong...
                happiness cannot be found anywhere, it cannot be bartered, it cannot be bought with money... happiness comes from within... its our own cycle of thoughts which bring happiness or take it away from us. A second we may be happy, but the very next second we may get miserable, but that moment lives on forever.It is difficult to be always happy but we can give it a try. you know what, we always feel we were happy in our past... and in our past we feel we will be happy in our future... we never live the moment .. that's the place where we are committing mistake. You may be enjoying a party, but at that moment something else moves in our mind and we turn into "something" else... but after that we cherish those moments.... isn't it?? That's the human tendency, we never live our present moments...
We run after happiness our whole lives, but happiness remains in our heart, and in the end we just ... we just ... go on running lives after lives...

Find happiness in the beauty of the morning sunrise...
in the evening sunset...
in the newly blossomed flower...
in the dew drops...
in the face of the toothless grin of your grandfather...
in the fresh face of a tiny tot...
and finally you will surely find happiness in your heart too....
