"Happiness is the only thing that multiplies when you shared it"

– Albert Schweitzer

‘Happiness’, what is this word actually? What exactly is being happy? Often, it’s a human nature to seek happiness outside amidst the world, but in true means, happiness is the state of being happy from within. Happiness is a kind of feeling that makes you joyful and delighted deep inside touching your heart and soul. And very well said, “Happiness is the only thing that multiplies when you shared it."

God has created this world beautifully without any discrimination. But these are our deeds which decide our fate. Some people are blessed with all luxuries and comforts to live life joyfully and for them this life becomes a blessing. Whereas, in the same world, some people have to struggle and they always keep on yearning for little things throughout their life under the shadow of poverty. For them the life seems to be a curse. But as a human, we must show our generosity towards those needy hands. When we wipe of someone’s mournful tears bringing smile on their tensed face, do not we feel a kind of inner peace and joy? Yes, definitely we. If God has given us that much, then we must have that greatness too to share it with others. When we make someone else happy and smiling, our own happiness gets doubled. Just think for a moment, you are having a very big mansion to live, abundance of wealth, but you are staying all alone in that big place. You can’t share your feelings, your joy, your experiences with anyone. Then what kind of life it will be? Will you be really happy despite living such a luxurious life? No, never. Rather, if you spend that wealth for some meaningful purpose, it will reward you with million of blessings that will shower more joy in your life. There are so many other examples around us. Why on a child’s birth, parents get so overwhelmed and share the news with all beloveds? Why in front of their little child, parents also cuddle and play like a child? Because being happy in their child’s moments, brings more joy in their own life.

I have experienced many such phases in my life. Whenever any little moment of happiness welcomes my world, I share it with my family and friends. In return, their love and wishes brim my heart and fill my life with more bliss. And many a times, it happened when due to some unavoidable situations, I could not share my feelings with my own people, at that moment, the charm of that success and joy was not that much fruitful as it was ever before.

If you are blessed with happiness, share it with others, express your emotions openly, express your joy. You will see, life will bring more bundles of smile and happiness enriching your surroundings with blessings.

O’ happiness is a priceless treasure,

Express your joy sharing with others,

You will cherish more and more miracles,

You will be blessed with precious pearls!
