Most of the times it is next to impossible to stay happy due to things happen in our surroundings, doesn’t matter what it is? pressure at work, loss in stock market, ass hole boss, irritating spouse, tensions in relations, worried about children  and what not. But as a human nature we stick to those things more than we embrace happy moments. It is always said that happiness is for few moments only, but do we ever realize that it is same with sorrows. The action is instantaneous for sorrows or happiness. But we embrace sorrows for longer time and we miss the happiness around.

Think about it, we get the call of bad news from extended family and we get the good news also. The duration of call may vary couple minutes more or less. But the impact it leaves behind on us is more when it is bad news. Both of these calls you received but we embrace the sorrows for longer and happiness for fraction of that of sorrow.

I would say find happiness  around you and crush down the sorrow with it and stay more happier than sad.

Try to find happiness in small things and stay happier.
