A friend once asked when it could be said that one is either happy or sad, and in response I had this to say.
________________________________________________________
Happiness ������ isn't a thing that happens down the road, or a mood that comes once in a while. It is an active sense of feeling������, borne out of the in-depth knowledge of self. You're either happy or you're not������, there's no in-betweens.
When a large part of your emotions is spent waiting �� for the occurrence of an event to propel you into the realm of pure bliss, then you might have just lost ������the meaning of happiness and true rest.
At this point, it could be said that you aren't living maximally������, and what you have termed happiness could be likened to a boss, who's never satisfied and would always have so many more tasks to 'dish-out' in order for you to grow wit to execute just another one -a tail of an insatiable desire������.
Happiness is discovering who you are, it is finding your heart, loving yourself, expressing the joy garnered inside-out, and offering the same measure of gifts acquired unto others, regardless of who deserves what or not ������
By so doing, you'd have gained mastery over your mind and obtained pure happiness������.
Therefore, regardless of your thought-pattern or belief, make a decision to not wait for anyone or events before you choose to be happy����������.
...then and only then can you live happily ever after...
