THE RELATION BETWEEN GRATITUDE AND HAPPINESS

“OUR WHOLE LIFE WE SEEM TO BE IN SEARCH OF THIS ‘ONE PASSION’ THAT WE THINK WILL WIN US FULFILMENT, AND THE CONCEPT IS USUALLY BASED ON OUR CAREER.”

Hello there fellows who are still searching for happiness. How are you? Happy yet? Found happiness yet? If you did, then I am so happy for you and congratulations and if you didn’t then I hope you and I both find it soon.

But the question is can we find happiness? Is it like something lost and we are hoping to find? Some people say it is and some people say no it has never been lost and it has always been there, but we are the ones who are too blind to see.

I always see this pictures of really poor people in Egypt with worse conditions that mine way way to much, but they look so happy in the pictures. Maybe it is a picture of a really poor kid who made a swing between two garbage canes. Maybe it is a picture of a man, his wife and their kids with a home that consists of a room for all of them, but they look so happy together. I can name a lot of pictures like this. And in the same time I see pictures of really rich people who have everything that can make them really happy and they are not, why is this? Why some people are happy and some are not.

Sometimes I think it is in the genes. I think that we are born with a gene inside our bodies that either makes us happy, or simply a gene that is missing and took our happiness with it and we will never reach happiness our entire life.

But then I go back and think, I don’t think that god would create us with something to make us unhappy. God is merciful. Not just our god or Allah, as we Muslims call it, but every god that has ever been worshiped was merciful and wouldn’t let us suffer from something so bad. So I go back again and say not it is not a gene.

But if it wasn’t a gene then why not all humans are happy by now?

I think it differ in the way you are grateful for everything around you. You know this little kid who is so happy by this swing that is made between garbage cane, the little kid who looks like he own the world with this simple swing that for god’s sake, between garbage canes? He is grateful for the swing that gives him the pleasure. He didn’t look for the garbage cane, he simple looked at the swing and was grateful for it and happy for it.

So I guess what differentiate everything, is how you see it. There is two faces and two sides for everything and the side you choose to see and how much gratitude you have for this side and this thing will determine how happy you will be.

BE GRATEFUL= BE HAPPY, they simply has a direct relation, this increase and the other side increases.

BE HAPPY
