Every ssingle person on this planet is in search of happiness is something that people will do anything ang everything yuo have.There are those who have rob banks,swindle people and do all kinds of things inorder to get money because they believe that happiness is found in wealth.Others look for it in power and prestige.There are as many places to look for for happiness as there are people as many ideas about happiness as there are individuals.
Very few people thoroughly understand that happiness is not a placea thing or a parson but a state of mind.Happiness reside's in a man's head and in his heat.It is an interior thing.Two people suffer from the same disease: one is totally unhappy and spends his day cursing his misfortune;the other indicates a kind of joy that causes wonder and amazement in all who see him.Here isa happy man who has everything that money can buy.There is a poor"basurero" who seems to be happy and content with little that he has.Why is it like this?Why is it that some people seem to find happiness quickly and easily and others can never seemtoeven close to it?Why is it that some can almost create happiness upon request whereas others have to go through great and complex processes before coming up with even a little bit of joy and satisfaction?It is bec. virtually all human unhappiness is caused and sustained by the view of one takes of things rather .-than the thingaaas themselves.
And it is like this all through life.A man loses his wife.He is now a widower with five children.He can either turn to the bottle or down himself in self-pity or he can seriously get down the task of taking care the children.The individual with terminal cancer can eithercurse God or graciously accept the reality of death.The wealthy man who loses his fortune can either blow his brains out or get busy re-building his business.
