Rating 4.83 (3 votes)Happiness is so simple. So simple that it is impossible to describe in words. It can be assumed that happiness is alive and colorful, and how many people there are, there are so many varieties of happiness. Therefore, through statements about happiness, we will try to understand what it really is and what it can be.
Laws of Happiness
Joseph Addison once remarked that happiness is built on three laws.
- Be busy.
- Someone to love.
- To believe in something.
This is true, a person just needs to do some business, because the process of creation will fill life with meaning. When every day ends with the creation of something new, you involuntarily realize that this is it, happiness.
Love also plays an important role in the formation of happiness. Many statements about happiness are connected precisely with love as such.
And, of course, faith. A person is arranged in such a way that he just needs to believe in something and hope for something. Even atheists believe they don't believe in anything. Well, yes, it turned out to be a pun, and yet, if you look, it really is.
Favourite buisness
Wise saying about the happiness of Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko, assures the reader that this very happiness lies in constantly doing what you love. And he is absolutely right. There are many examples of how selflessly people can play musical instruments, write scripts or draw. It is not so important for them whether it is day or night outside: the inner desire to do what they like more than life drives such people.
It is wrong to assume that such people are geniuses, they just happened to feel what it is like to do what you love. Even if something does not work out, even if difficulties arise in some issue, this only kindles the excitement in them: they want to overcome them faster in order to learn something new about their favorite craft.
Supported Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko in his statement about happiness Leo Tolstoy and Emil Zola:
One of the most amazing misconceptions is the misconception that a person's happiness lies in doing nothing.
L. N. Tolstoy
The only happiness in life is the constant striving forward.
Love and spices
One ancient Indian saying says that health, stamina and power are useless if a person does not enjoy love.
Love is another criterion of happiness and a favorite lyrical direction in art, music and literature. It's hard to know exactly when it starts. When do we start looking for someone to love? Probably from the moment we are born, we learn to love. First we are surrounded by family, then friends, someone may have pets. We love cartoons and games, we love good weather and new sneakers. We like to learn something new and collect "secret information" in diaries. We love the whole world and feel that it responds in kind.
But then comes the spicy, rebellious youth. We are learning for the first time what “other love” is, and most of us are very disappointed in it. And disappointed, they stop loving and do not want to be loved. With such an approach, happiness is definitely not found.
No one disputes that loving and being loved is the greatest joy, and statements about happiness are constantly reminded of this. But ... no one will ever be able to get what he does not possess.
To find love, we must be attractive, but we are most attractive when we love!
Probably, everyone has come across a situation where you are alone for a long time, but then you suddenly fall in love, and they immediately begin to openly compete for you. This is exactly what Laura Day was talking about: once you fall in love, you immediately become the most attractive person in the eyes of others. After all, happiness cannot but attract.
Learn to give
Luule Viilma once revealed to the world a stunning statement about love and happiness:
Giving love and giving with love is happiness. To receive love and to receive without love is misfortune.
When you really love someone, you give your best with pleasure and love, and the more you give, the happier you become. This is a simple axiom that cannot be refuted, no matter how hard one tries.
And a few more sayings about love and happiness. They definitely have something that will make you think:
At the very evil person his face blooms when he is told that he is loved. So, this is happiness.
L. N. Tolstoy
There is only one happiness in life - to love and be loved.
The highest happiness in life is the certainty that you are loved. They love for your own sake, or rather, they love in spite of you.
W. M. Hugo
Find yourself
Someone once said that in order to find happiness, you must first find yourself. Perhaps people are unhappy because they do not understand who they are and why they have come. Abraham Lincoln rightly said:
Most people are only as happy as they choose to be.
We are on our own path to happiness. Why not make your childhood dream come true?! After all, as Sigmund Freud said:
Only the realization of childhood dreams can bring happiness.
Only we constantly forget about childhood dreams. Adult life is another world and other laws. Here you think not about childhood dreams, but about how to pay for utilities and what to cook for dinner. And only sometimes, when there are several hours of free time, you plunge into the past and remember how once at school your paintings (poems / compositions / inventions / sports achievements, etc.) were recognized as the best, and then something went wrong not this way.
But you quickly brush aside this thought, realizing that, for example, an amateur artist cannot earn bread and butter. An easel looks invitingly from under the cabinet, so many years have passed, but the hand has not risen to throw it away. You know that next to him lies a forgotten set of almost unused paints. Inside, everything seems to be turning over, and you want to create something special again, but the alarm on your phone is already set for six in the morning and you go to bed, once again promising yourself to throw this junk away.
Statements about happiness describe just such a situation. Unfulfilled dreams, regrets about the past, misunderstanding of oneself - all these are reliable anchors that keep a person on his path to happiness.
Journey
Happiness is not the station you arrive at, it is the way you travel.
M. Runbeck
Our life is a marathon, not a sprint, even if we start doing something together with someone and he breaks ahead - this is not a reason to despair. You can always catch up, the main thing is to realize in time what exactly your happiness is.
A person must be happy. If he is unhappy, then he is guilty. And he is obliged to work on himself until he eliminates this inconvenience or misunderstanding.
L. N. Tolstoy
As folk wisdom says: "Every person is the blacksmith of his own happiness." You don't need to shift this responsibility onto someone, you don't need to join someone active in order to establish yourself at his expense. Happiness does not tolerate such behavior - it is alive and comes only to those who can take care of it on their own. Happiness is not the result of efforts, but a reward for conscientious work.
Aphorisms and sayings about happiness can tell a lot:
The habit of being happy allows a person to largely free himself from the dominance of external circumstances.
R. Stevenson
A wise man is always and everywhere calm. After all, he does not depend on someone else and does not expect mercy either from fortune or from people. Happiness is at home in him: if this happiness were alien to his soul, it would have left from there, but it was born in it.
If you ever find it while chasing happiness, you will find, like an old woman looking for her glasses, that happiness was always on your nose.
J. B. Shaw
Only the ugly duckling is happy. He has time to think alone about the meaning of life, friendship, read a book, help other people. So he becomes a swan. Just need patience.
M. Dietrich
In particular, I would like to note the statement of Marlene Dietrich. Happiness really loves the patient. Those who can persistently and purposefully achieve their goals, who do not waste time and are ready to develop as a person, surpassing themselves yesterday every day.
Happiness is hidden in simple things. It is often found in what is usually overlooked in the eternal rush of the journey called life. The rays of the spring sun, the azure sky, the health of oneself and loved ones, true love and true friendship - how little it is, but at the same time a lot is needed for happiness. But if there are these components, everything else will follow later, there would be arms and legs, a head on the shoulders and the ability to feel.
Happiness is like health: when it is there, you do not notice it.
M. Bulgakov
Human happiness does not consist at all in dying well, but in living well.
M. Montaigne
M. M. Prishvin
Happiness is increased by sharing it with others.
J. O. de La Mettrie
Happiness comes when everything that used to annoy begins to bring pleasure.
A. V. Voloshanenko
You have to believe in the possibility of happiness in order to be happy.
L. N. Tolstoy
Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the most important key to success. If you love what you do, you will definitely succeed.
A. Schweitzer
You can’t say much about happiness, it’s only about troubles that people can talk for hours. Everything is simple here: either it is, or it is not. Happy is the one who does not need to prove something to anyone, the one who loves and is loved, the one who does his own thing and is surrounded by “his” people, faithful and devoted. This is inner harmony, which cannot be achieved by buying expensive things.
As long as a person lives, he owes nothing to anyone except to be happy. The only thing he can call failure is that in his entire long life he never understood what happiness is and what its meaning is. They say that happiness lies in love or craft, but this dilemma everyone must decide for himself.
