DECIDE TO LIVE WITHOUT HAPPINESS, ENJOY LIFE AND BE HAPPY.
Let us stop for a moment and look at our life from a different angle.
From time to time we experience various negative emotions like anxiety,
fear, apathy or anger. Those feelings and emotions might be caused by
troubled relationships with our dear ones or difficult situation in
business or problems with health.
Sometimes all of us might feel lost. At those moments we need support and encouragement as well as wise words that may help to look at the situation from another point of view. It could be a conversation with a wise person or reading spiritual literature. It is also good to spend some quiet moments in nature, trying to listen to the voice of your heart. It might tell you much more then you could expect.
An old man lived in the village. He was one of the most unfortunate people in the world. The whole village was tired of him, he was always gloomy, constantly complained and always was in a bad mood. The longer he lived, the more bile was becoming and the more poisonous were his words. People avoided him, because his misfortune became contagious. It was even unnaturally and insulting to be happy next to him. He created the feeling of unhappiness in others.
But one day, when he got eighty years old, an incredible thing happened. Instantly everyone heard the rumour: “An Old Man is happy today, he doesn’t complain about anything, smiles, and even his face is freshened up”. The whole village gathered together.
An old man was asked:
– What happened to you?
– Nothing special – he answered. – Eighty years I’ve been chasing happiness, and it was useless. And then I decided to live without happiness and just enjoy life. That’s why I’m happy now.
