It's not everytime we have a reason to be happy, some times there are no reason whatsoever, but then its essential we stay happy, we achieve a lot more with a joyful heart. Self Inflict the happiness till it comes freely. If we look for reasons to be sad we would definitely find a lot of reasons, a lot is going on already, everyone has a fair share of worries they are encountering, but staying sad is bad, sadness has never been allowed us be the best we can be at the moments.
However its hard to see wrong things happen and still be in control of your emotions, "No" I won't let this get to me, quickly you have seeked another option to get you off the sad mood and happy once more, more than we need to be sober, we need to be happy too, moreover being sober as the Bible advises us doesn't mean to sob as people often think, it means to be in the right state of mind and reasoning. For instance those who are intoxicated via strong drinks or drugs are not sober and should quit so they can be sober, that's in their right state of mind.
We too as neighbours, as brothers and sisters, contributes to the raging level of sadness people experience on a daily basis, we don't Care how our words would be accepted by the person we are talking to, worst than that, we don't care how our actions would affect the next Person, we just want to do what we like, making someone sad is never something to be merry about, rather be a source of happiness.
Money has been the largest cause of people's unhappiness, we all hope to accumulate so much wealth and want it fast, and looking around us it feels like we are the only ones left, everyone is buying the cars, building the houses, spending large and so on and we can only wonder if all is well. Talk about the oppression we allow ourselves go through, few were only living their lives and doing what they normally do, but we take offensive thinking they were trying to embarrass us, and this causes a whole new sadness because we don't know how soon we too would become wealthy to revenge, why not try this, learn to choose happiness at all time, start with a smile.
Its no lie, that we often are the reason for our unhappiness, I don't mean because of our past actions now, what's done is done already, but we often open the doors of our hearts wide to let any and everything get to us. We expect that everyone would be nice and loving to us, which is very impossible, even the biggest stars still have lots of haters, oh our Lord Jesus Christ who was the perfect picture of Good was Still hated while he was walking on earth, so you can't expect everyone would just like you, so when you hear some hate speech, just know it happens and let it slide quickly.
The people we love hurts us more and can cause a greater level of sadness, I have written on this previously and how those we love are more capable to hurt us more, however they still are not the key holders of your emotions, you are. Its your emotions, its your choice, its hard to snap off some certain feelings but it's best we learn how to snap out of it, especially when there is a greater work to be done. People tend to not go to work because they have been hurt, some call it emotional trauma, while others can be through same experience and don't feel a thing, just carry on with their normal lives, we understand people are different but it's best we care for our selves and learn to be our best at all times, and this needa us to be happy.
Funny how trivial matters too have lead to a large amount of unhappiness, unimportant issues like your sport team losing a match, a customers response to you, a friendly quarrel and minute issues like this can just get someone off the edges and spoil the mood for the dull day or more, its bad. As a Chelsea fan, well thank God we won the championship league title but if they had lost the final, I wouldn't be so bitter as not to eat or pick up a fight, I'll just be sad for a moment then switch the station to catch me some fun. Life isn't as hard as we often make it seem. Learn to intentionally choose to be happy.
Now that you have learnt to pick happiness rather, don't just stop there, do well be sharing happiness too. We know the importance of being happy, those days we stayed happy, we know how fun our day went, those were the days we did most of the crazy stuffs that we can remember and laugh over today, people too need to know it pays more to be happy and they too should learn to pick happiness fast yet in trying times. However it won't be easy to start but overtime we can learn and act right. Do well to make people happy, you never knows who just needs it as at the time you did it, share happiness too, sharing happiness too makes you happy, being a source of joy and laughter truly gladdens the soul.
So as we step out today and every other day, we are not trying so hard to see how people feel about us or do to us, our hearts are shielded and we only allow what we want get in, so let them live their lives too and say what they like and do what they feel is appropriate, we would still be happy because we choose happiness over sadness any day anytime. Not ending there, we are giving out a share of what we love to give out and that is happiness, make people happy today, I promise the smiles on their faces would being more happiness to you and that we can bring by ourselves. Learn to stay happy, bad things never stops but we would choose happiness every time.
Thanks For Reading.
We are really the ones who are in charge of our happiness. Circumstances may make us sad but we shouldn't dwell on that. While we are sad let us absorb it until we don't feel sad anymore and eventually shift our energy to some positive vibe.
