Happiness is a concept that is subjective and
individualistic. It is a state of being where one experiences joy and
contentment, but what constitutes happiness varies from person to person.
Children find happiness in simple things like receiving a two-wheeler or
meeting their favorite Disney characters in Disneyland. Teenagers are
ecstatic when they meet their pop idols, while mature adults are thrilled to
meet famous actors or musicians. For some, academic achievements bring
happiness, such as receiving a scholarship to study overseas or passing an
exam to enter a university college. Meanwhile, for those who are struggling
academically, even just passing an exam and receiving a local scholarship
brings immense joy.
People who have been struggling financially or living in poverty can find
happiness in owning their first motorcycle or receiving the keys to a
low-cost one-room house. Similarly, those who have lost their homes due to
natural disasters can experience happiness and gratitude when receiving
financial aid to rebuild their homes.
Finding a job can bring happiness to the unemployed, as it offers the
promise of a better future. However, highly paid employees may find it
difficult to experience happiness due to factors such as low pay, limited
chances for promotion, and an overbearing boss. It is only when one has hit
rock bottom that they can truly appreciate the little things that bring joy
and happiness.
The pursuit of happiness can be elusive and challenging. However, it is
important to work towards happiness and to believe that we all deserve to be
happy. While it may take very little for some to find joy, others may need
to work harder to find it.
In conclusion, happiness is a highly subjective concept that varies from
person to person. The pursuit of happiness can be challenging, but we all
deserve to experience it. It is important to focus on the little things that
bring joy and contentment and to work towards achieving our personal
happiness. |
