Philosophy of Happiness in Life

If we are happy, we'll contribute happiness to the society, if we are distressed we'll surely inflict others in one way or other. Happiness is a social virtue, it is not an isolated state of mind which only surrounds an individual. Some of us often think that happiness can sometimes act selfishly, which I think and feel isn't right. We cannot enjoy a real happiness, a long lasting pleasure in our life if everything is not well around us. This state of mind can't be reached by fooling others, snatching there rights, bunking our duties. A society which tends to be happy with whatever resources it has will definitely have a large number of individual enjoying happiness. It doesn't means that they do not have problems or they get satisfactory results from everything they do. It only means that these common problems of life do not interfere with the quality of life they can have. Happiness is A Social Virtue We cannot drive happiness by making others unhappy. It is no...

Do you think honesty is related to success and happiness in life. Understanding a simple principle can lead to more comfortable life. Our environment today is more polluted then it was a year ago, our food chain is more vulnerable today then it was some time back. Today we are not actually enjoying life but we are only surviving, the physical environment is actually getting more and more polluted day by day which can be measured by our modern instruments but what about our mental environment our growing negative tendency, which has also deviated towards negative zone. We cannot lead a calm life, a peaceful life because it is counter productive, our modern lifestyle has turned each one of us to defensive mentality. We have to think before anything we do because nothing is natural, close to reality, water which was earlier a sign of life, a gift of nature is now a sign of pollutant illness and disease, we will not like to drink water directly from a natural source before processing or ...

Everything that happens in our life plays an important role in shaping our future and present. Difficulties and problems too have a positive as well as negative aspect on our life . They also act as a calibrating tool, a rating system of our life. Big players face bigger problems and small players face small problem but each one of them sees and treats them in somewhat similar fashion. Every difficult situation or problem that we solve or cross successfully increases our individual ranking in life and adds to our list of achievements in life besides boosting our confidence level and morale to tackle such situation in future. DIFFICULTIES AND PROBLEMS ARE NOT FORCED BUT NATURAL Life is a continuous process, a journey. The moment we cease to move with life is the moment life ceases to exist. Look at non-living objects, life less things around us, they don't react to anything, they are not perturbed with changing environment, degrading situations because life isn't supported wi...

Every form of life on this planet is meaningful . Even if we don't consider ourselves as an important part of this planet/universe, the environment that we live in, that supports our lives, this fact (whether we are important part or not) remains unperturbed. Whether we consider ourselves to be very important or not important at all, things remain as they are. Just like an ocean filled with water, which is nothing but drops of water containing other minerals. Each drop of water in the ocean has some role to play and they are playing there role in there community called ocean. Each of them has characteristic similar to the ocean or we can say that ocean has characteristic similar to each drop of water it contains. If there is no water there is no ocean, and if there are no drops, there is no water. Meaning of Life Meaning of life for each one of us depends on the role we play in our life, in our family, in our society, at work. Even if we are not aware of our role we are still ...

In Search of Happiness How do we find happiness and where? There is no definite place where one can find happiness. There is no single abode for happiness either its available to everyone everywhere or for someone it is nowhere. Its strange but its true. Anyway, we are not supposed to consider negative things here as this is not the right place for such discussions. Negative things leads to negative realizations in life and positive things to positive realization. We can think of this world as good or bad (although both are true) but in reality what we get is what we sought. There are so many ways to find happiness . A child can find happiness in a dress, a terrorist can find happiness in explosives and explosions. So, it is you who decides where can you find similarity between happiness and an activity (or happiness without any activity). I will like to list some common places and instances of happiness in our day to day life. A happiness that frequently strikes our vision, the m...

Everybody struggles to survive with his views . There is nothing more important than our views. Whatever we see, like or dislike is an outcome of our views. The problems we face or the happiness we get is directly related to our views. These views make our philosophy of life , basis of how we act and react in day to day situations. Our Views or Personal Philosophy in Life Make Our Life Views make our circumstances , may be we blame someone else for these but we are responsible for most of what happens to us and our environment. A change in view means a change in environment, our surrounding. It is just like clicking Refresh button on your computer after making some changes. A positive approach to life leads to positive consequences, a negative approach to life leads to negative consequences. So, whatever is on our mind even a slightest doubt has a higher probability of coming true then something we didn't have had thought about because our views make our life . A philosophical...
