The Pursuit Of Happiness

Have you every wonder what happiness means to you? What's your own definition of happiness?

As for mine. I came to realise that Happiness is not just a state of mind. Happiness is also a state of emotion. Happiness may take many forms but it is the underlying motivator in most of my decisions.

Well, I guess it is part of our natural instinct to pursue happiness. The same way we seek to experience physical pleasure and avoid physical pain, we seek emotional pleasure, and attempt to avoid emotional pain. Our emotional enjoyment, or what we can call happiness, is simply part of human nature.

Even with a natural instinct and our best efforts, it seems all too easy to create emotional chaos and unhappiness instead. Don't you think so?

But somehow or rather i still believe that the pursuit of happiness is a part of our personal constitution and make up as a living being. It is every human's birthright and it is within every person's possibility to achieve.

Authentic happiness is what i want in life.
