Would we be happier if we got all we wanted? Would we be happier if we were richer, stronger, more intelligent, more good looking, taller, slimmer? What would be the definition of 'happier' then? If we have everything that we've wished for, how then would we be happier than we already were? Would we then wish we were less blessed so that we would have more experience in life's lessons? Would we wish that something bad happened so that we had more stories to share?
Being happy is subjective. Having all that we wish for would perhaps make us easier to attain certain things that we desire but we know of too many examples of people who are so unhappy despite being rich, healthy, intelligent, beautiful, tall and slim. They could have been happier -What more could they ask for?
We don't need much to be happy. Accept ourselves as who we are and what we have been and what we will be and we could be as happy as can be.
