Are You Searching For Happiness?

Are you happy? Or are you still searching for happiness?

What makes you happy really?

A lot of people tell me that they will be happy when they earn their first million.

Some tell me they will be happy once they they lose weight and achieve that perfect figure!

Others tell me they will be happy once they are married and have children.

Yet others tell me they will only be happy when they are successful and famous!



I guess most people will only be happy when they reach their goals in life. So in other words, we are all always striving to reach that state of being happy.

Have you ever wondered why we work so hard? Well, for the majority of us, we work hard for the money.

But why do we need to have money? Besides being able to buy food, pay our house loans and other necessities in life, we can buy things we like. And why would we want those things so much? Probably because they help us accomplish certain things in life or we want to look cool.

But why do we want to accomplish those things? Why do we want to look cool? Keep questioning yourself and you'll find that the real reason is because that would make you happy. You see, it all boils down to this craving for that state of happiness.



Now don't get me wrong. There is nothing wrong in pursuing our dreams and our goals.

But if it is really happiness that you are after, why go through all the troubles? Since happiness is just a state of your conscious mind, don't you think you can simply 'choose' to be happy?

As ridiculous as this may sound to you, don't you think that you can just sit back, do nothing and be happy?

Why go through all the hard work to reach your destination when you can actually arrive at your destination now?

Believe me, there are people who have already achieved this - they are the reclusive yogis, who choose to do nothing and be happy.

I guess it's not easy for us to do that because all our lives, we have been conditioned to work hard in order to achieve our dreams. And then and only then, would we be satisfied and be happy.

But here's the problem. That happiness will not last very long. For very soon, we will be craving for more, for that next step because as humans, we always want to progress.


Funny Pictures

And so, people will continue to strive for that elusive happiness all their lives, wondering why do they feel so empty after having achieved so many things in life. You see, searching for happiness outside of you is an illusion. Because happiness is found within.

You already have happiness inside you. Be happy NOW. No matter what circumstances in your life right now, you can choose to be happy. IT'S YOUR CHOICE.

Why not be happy even as you continue to strive for your goals and dreams? You don't need to be happy only AFTER you have achieved them. As they say, success is a journey not a destination.

If there is a really good time to be happy, the time is NOW.

You can choose to be happy. Right this minute.

Have a happy weekend, everyone! : )

    We can be happy anytime we want... it doesn't have to mean that we need to reach our goal first then we can be happy.

    Even the simplest thing can mean we are happy. Like getting a smile, getting a surprise call from a friend that have lost touch for some time, having your favorite meal etc...

    We don't need to wait until we have achieve our goal like earn the first million to be happy. Happiness comes from within :).

    Though some happiness don't last all long... but what makes us think that earning the first million, losing weight, etc... will mean the happiness will last right? :P

    You will be happy if you are happy regardless what it takes to be happy :).

    (and here I am blabbing away bleh~)

    i definitely agree with this... well i guess we are all looking for happiness...the true happiness...
    Money is just an instrument and what can you buy from your money are those material things only... You might be satisfied physically and mentally but not spiritually. coz for me, happiness is always associated with God... Love him more than anything else and you'll see what happiness really is^^
    have a great day Foong

    Hehe... it's easier said than done.

    I am a Buddhist. I already know how to be happy - live in here-and-now; no remorse over the past; no longing for future... But my mind doesn't listen to me.

    We do need to do something - that's to train our mind. That's exactly what the reclusive yogis do...

    November 20, 2009 at 11:06 AM
  9. manglish said...

    good blog!!! i agree with you..we can choose to be happy or not....but dont listen to yogis...they usually died alone and penniless hahahhahha

    As long as people crave for things, they will never truly be happy.

    very inspirational :)

    i know the theory of being happy - just that it is easier to be said than done.

    i learnt one thing though - life is easier for the easy going and non-perfectionist :D

    "Money is not everything. But everything needs money". To go for a leak you need to pay 30sen in shopping complex and some charges RM2, behind trees its FOC. It's your choice. Live in moderation by following the middle path. Have a great weekend foongpc.

  18. [SK] said...

    yes, i agree with that saying, our ultimate goal in life is to achieve happiness..

    November 20, 2009 at 12:41 PM
  19. [SK] said...

    and all those health, wealth, beauty, success, glory etc etc are just substances, at that time then called goals, to help you achieve happiness..

    November 20, 2009 at 12:42 PM
  20. [SK] said...

    we will have different type of goals in different stages, and that is also spelling how differently we will feel happy about them..

    November 20, 2009 at 12:42 PM
  21. [SK] said...

    but what really is the ultimate happiness?? perhaps we might not know yet..

    manglish, that's right it's our own choice to be happy or otherwise! Not sure about yogis, but I sure don't need to be one to be happy! : )

  43. foongpc said...

    che-cheh, me sounded like Eckhart Tolle? Wow! I'll take that as a compliment! Haha! Btw, I love to read Tolle's books. Very inspiring.

    Yeah, the mind is our best friend as well as our biggest enemy. The person who can control his mind controls the world. Well, I guess everytime our mind stray to the past or future, we just have to cancel the thoughts and bring ourselves back to the present. The Now all that matters : )

    ** I just realise that u're a guy! HAHA. Although I'm new to ur blog, I've seen you leaving comments on other blogs and I always thought that you're a female! 'Scuse me, ahem. Must be that cute panda avatar of yours for misleading me into this silly assumption! :P

    And oh, in case u've made the same assumption on me, I'm a guy. :)

    Are you on Twitter? Come follow me on Twitter cos I usually announce my next upcoming post on Twitter. Hehe

    About your photo, since you already revealed your face to the world, what's wrong with putting your face here? Haha! But if you don't like, I will use your avatar next time. Actually, I like to use different pictures every time, not so boring mah! Haha!

    November 20, 2009 at 3:24 PM
  56. foongpc said...

    kyh, what?! You are a guy? Haha! Yeah, a lot of people think I'm a gal. But that panda is actually a male panda!! Don't people recognize it's Jing Jing, that cute panda mascot from 2008 Beijing Olympics?

    Who knows, maybe I blog like a gal. Well....

    You are a MC fan too? Yay! Gimme 5! : )

    Hahah foong... well, revealed is one thing :P Having it on other people's blog FC is another thing haha!

    Also that isn't a really good picture of me mar. But honestly, I usually prefer a low profile of how I look like haha. I revealed cause so many people demanded. I am nice like that mar ;P. But who knows maybe I will remove those picture one day? o_o;

  60. HappySurfer said...

    I believe happiness is over-hyped. Like others, happiness is neutral. You can feel happy about being happy or you can feel otherwise. Unfortunately, people normally associate happiness with material things or when something is acquired when there are lots of other stuff that can give us the satisfaction and peace of mind.

    November 20, 2009 at 3:38 PM
  61. ladyviral said...

    If possible ^_^. I like my avatar better than my own picture >___>

    Thank you for letting me change it :D. I am such problematic haha >__<.

    that got me into thinking... no wonder u were so brave to wander alone in the soul-less jungle routes of Guilin! while i was reading that, i thought to myself, this *girl* was so adventurously brave! :p

    And oh, unless there's a tinge of bimbo-look-at-me-i'm-cute in your blog, then no, there's ntg wrong in ur blogging style.

    I didn't even know the names of the beijing olympics mascots! O.O

    Happiness is "Nowhere" if you are searching from the outside just like the "Acres of Diamonds" story. It's all the time "NOW-HERE" from within you.ക

    ladyviral, I love people who spam my blog! Haha! I mean, spam in a nice way lah. Not spam me with products promotions and ads!! I will delete those comments! Otherwise, I never ever delete any of the comments here.

    As I said, it's not a problem, so don't worry. But I still prefer your photo. I don't mean that your avatar is not nice, just that a photo is always better than any avatars.

    Then again, I talk only. Cos if anyone dares to put my photo up there on their blog, I will surely kill them!! LOL!

    Nice and very thought-provoking entry, bro!

    The idea of having more cash is to allow life to have more options. At least you can sack the boss without guilt anytime when you are rich. =p

    It's important to have goals in our life. Only can there be meaning and a direction.

    Bananaz, or more appropriately, happiness is inside of us all the while. We just have to search within ourselves instead of looking elsewhere. If only we would realize it and develop the ground we are standing on before charging off in search of greener pastures.

    its a simple concept really.
    why frown when you can smile, and instantly feel the gratification deep inside you?
    whatever comes, take it lightly. life's full of challenges. don't compare with others.

    it's true that we can choose to be happy but it's not easy...

    and sometimes... when ure just having a bad day or down in d dumps, it's hard to sum up the happiness.. or choose to be happy

    Great article. Yup, having one million bucks or achieving that slender figure or getting married doesn't guarantee happiness.

    One may have one million dollars or ringgit or pounds or Euros, but they could be having problems elsewhere. One may be thin but so what? Ah, there are countless other examples!

    I don't think that happiness is a destination either. To me, I believe that the journey itself contains happiness. The journey is happiness. The destination is just something extra, a bonus.

    Nowadays, people like to complain. Including me. But sometimes when we look back and think back of our problems, they aren't so bad at all. We learn from past mistakes and those mistakes shape us into who we are today.

    Things happen for a reason, that's something I feel strongly about too. :)

    I always believe if you choose to be happy, no one will be able to make you sad.
