Nazim Hikmat, The great Turkish poet once asked his friend Abidin Dino (Turkish artist and well known painter), to draw a picture of Happiness. He drew a picture of a whole family ,cramped up on a broken bed, under a leaky roof in a shabby room but still with a smile on each member's face!
Goes without saying that the painting became very famous.
Yes, Happiness is not the absence of sufferings, but acceptance of
sufferings. However, different people have different level of Happiness disposition, i.e., the inner tendency to remain Happy. Also, happiness is a
fuzzy concept and can mean many different things to
different people. For me happiness is to help needy people and to do social work.
An ultimate source of happiness always sees the good around you even in trying situations. Stop worrying about things which are beyond your control and stay happy!
