One patient
the other day asks me what happiness is. The patient was depress and is looking
for happiness. I ask the patient what means being happy, the patient responses “I
don’t know, what is happiness?” My
response to that question was that happiness is different for each person,
makes happy some people are not necessary the same things make happy others. Even
that I responded to the patient, I stay thinking about what is happiness.
My very
personal opinion about happiness is that are just moments that we enjoy for a
moment and we keep in our hearts for some period of time some times for ever. The
truth is that we tend to live our life looking for happiness some times without
even knowing what we are looking for. Some people look for the big picture
instead simple things like the smile of your kids, the hug of your family, and
the flower in your way to work, the kiss of your spouse, and the word of God to
comfort us.
Happiness is
only one part of our life, there is anger, there is resentment, there is joy, and
there is love, and so on… We should not only concentrate in looking just for
happiness but live every moment of our lives, because each moment that we live
brings a lesson that we need to learn, brings a memory to keep, brings a new
opportunity to be grateful to God, but most important a new opportunity to be
closer to Him. I hope you enjoy you day
today and every day.
1 Peter 5:6-7
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may
lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because
he cares for you.
Big Hug,
