What makes us happy? Is it the love of a family? Company of good friends? A fulfilling career? Or supporting spouses? A lot of people seem to have ticked a few or most of these options but they still look miserable. This sense of contentment, where does it come from? Should one set goals for it? Do these goals vary for everybody? A positive attitude, staying healthy or practicing mindfulness - do these even work?
Our mind works in mysterious ways and we seem to be pissed about the things we don’t have rather than being happy about the things we own. It’s good to be ambitious but I think every now and then we should look back and ponder about our ‘character arc,’ because that’s what we are - a character in our own stories. We'd like to be the 'Hero' in this story - someone who has figured everything out by the end of the movie or at least is on the right path.
Think about this over a cup of coffee or whatever your favourite beverage is 😀 and know that without coffee, there would be a lot more hate in this world.
