The illusive pursuit of Happynes

IN PURSUIT OF HAPPYNES


HAPPYNES - what is this thing called Happynes which we have become so obsessed with as a means to an end but have yet to experience at the level we wish to. In an age where we have become wealthier & more knowledgeable, it seems more and more people are seeking it as if it has suddenly gone missing. We seem to devote every waking & breathing moment of our conscious life in pursuit of this emotion. 
However, do we REALLY know or understand what HAPPYNES is or the means through which it can be TRULY experienced?
The silly thing is, haven't we been trying to seek it as a GOAL for almost as long as we can remember. Seeking it as a GOAL as if it were something we could achieve if we worked hard at! 
The irony is - this very thing called "HAPPYNES" , do we actually know what it is or feels like or looks like (no, really do we?). 
If u do not recognize what you are seeking then how do you acknowledge it when it appears in your life. It could be something you may have already attained but are just not aware of. That's like going on a blind date  or more like you trying to hit the bulls-eye in the dark with your eyes closed with a bow & arrow & u're not even an archer.


However, we have been very busy DOING a whole lot of things towards achieving   Happynes. It almost seems like its attainable by DOING something and dictated by some EXTERNAL circumstance.
WE SAY - i will be happy if i get that job or i will happy if i had that car or house or i would be happy if only my partner did this or that or behaved in a certain way or if only that person didn't do this or that to me then i could be happy etc etc...
In a nutshell - something had to happen or you had to do something for you to be happy.


But if that were true then we should all already be HAPPY cos we have been DOING a whole lot of things & ACHIEVING a whole lot of success in our life. But why then are we still feelling this sense of lack of HAPPYNES?


This is a LIFE AWARENESS journey into the subconscious and it is a conscious journey. Although being around for more than three decades, the greater realization that there has to be more to being simply present in this life-form and been given this gift of life, still eludes me. This realization alone has been one great awareness. The hope of this journey is that by the time i understand LIFE i would have lived it & fulfilled my God given purpose for occupying this space on planet earth. I wish to share this journey & together make this OUR journey and help make a difference in our existence. God Bless.
