You are as HAPPY as you WANT to :)))

All of us go through our share of trials and tribulations. We all have moments of ecstasy and anguish. When we look around in times of despair to see that there are people who are living in their hunky- dory worlds, we feel small. But that is not the case. Who knows what those seemingly happy people are going through? Or for that matter, at what cost have they achieved the seemingly happy persona that you are seeing?

The key is not to find non sad and non despair moments in life. But to FEEL the sadness and despair moments of life.

If you lose the sensation to feel the sadness, you will lose the sensation to feel the ecstasy also, whenever you will get it. DO NOT LOSE YOUR POWER TO FEEL THE PAIN. For it is this power that will give you the strength to overcome that pain.

Strength comes from within. Strength comes from the pain. One of my very good friends uploaded a nice message on facebook, which said- "No one will manufacture a lock without a key. Similarly God won't give problems without solutions."

From my own experiences, I can share some fool proof ways that can help you cheer up and lift your spirits high:


  • Surround yourself with what you love- whether its your family, friends, pets, a hobby, music or any other thing. Your home is your refuge. 
  • Tell the people you love them, at every possible opportunity.
  • Forgive those who have hurt you, you might not get a second chance for that.
  • Laugh often. LIVE while you are alive
  • Keep only cheerful and positive friends around. At all cost, stay away from negative people. When you can not decide between positive and negative people, go by your instincts.
  • Keep learning new things- it could be anything. New shortcuts on your computer, fixing a fuse, making round chapattis, whatever it is, just keep learning.
  • Tears happen. Endure, grieve and move on. 
  • Take frequent trips to places- shopping malls, markets, new cities and countries. But NEVER TAKE A GUILT TRIP.
  • Take care of your health. You will always feel better when you are healthy.   
Try these 'tricks' without any risk. Life will be as beautiful as you will make it!
