Happiness?

What is happiness? The answer is going to be different for everyone. But if you really think of it...what really is happiness. Is it money, love, adventure? Idk...sometimes when hearing the answer to that question make us sound Superficial. Why does superficial things have to make us happy? People spend their whole life trying to make a name for their self, or to become rich or to have that PERFECT someone in their life. A lot of the time it seems that we are so unreasonable with what we want..and what we think will make us happy. In the end if you do get that EXACT thing your looking for..fame, fortune, that perfect someone..are you really happy...

Think about it. We are on our journey to find our answer to happiness....sometimes that takes forever, sometimes we could never find it. Point is we spend more of our life searching for happiness, then living in the moment, being happy for the life we have, for who we are. If were searching, were not happy right now? That doesnt seem right or realistic to me. most of our life we are unhappy, until we find our answer..find what we need, our definition of happiness. Just seems like were walking through life with blinders one, only keeping our eyes open for that prize that we feel will complete our definition of happiness. When doing that were missing out on so many things that make this life amazing, that can be happiness. But, just because they are not in our line of focus on happiness, we judge them and look right past. Only to still be unhappy, walking through life unhappy. When happiness is what we make out of it. Not superficial meanings of happiness.

Thats happiness to me. I know i know money, all that jazz that we want and think will make us happy is fun, and it might really make us happy. I just feel like were wasting our time only looking for those definitions of happiness, when we should be open and searching for everything. Not to just be focused on that one thing. Life, we only get one, dont waste it on searching for one thing, walking through life with blinders on embrace it. Look at everything. Happiness in life is only what we make it.

Peace
