You cannot capture happiness no matter how hard you may chase after it. Happiness is something that follows you. What shall we do then?

The so-called happiness,it is not a person's unique,it is the idea of personal happiness,and to forget the painful efforts.To become well-being and good,the only way people will feel what is happiness.

Hello,mypighbox,I think the more we want to chasea for happiness, the less happiness we will have,some people try to chase for wealth,other chase for power,they may finally get their targets or fail,but most of the time, they do not find themselves happier than before,they have much money but more worries about losing the money, they have more power buy worry someone will take over them. May be it is better to be content for the moment.

As you said,that will come back to what is happiness.we can read the first response,happiness is depend on our mind.I want to say in a simple way,if you think you are happy,and be happy,you are happy too.or you have not happiness in you mind,you will be no happiness with you.

That is true. So I think that being concerned about others and helping them will bring you happiness. Thinking about others and helping them brings happiness to others and also to you.

In our daily life that is a easy and hard way to help others.So call easy,we can do most thing around us.So call hard,we always think about ourselves first.

Happiness is your state of mind! When you are happy your body hormones are all in very balanced state and your ody is flowing with the hormones responsible for making you feel happy! Any disturbance in these hormones makes your brain imbalanced and then your mood swings to negative side and you start to have the feeling of tension, anxiety, restlessness, fear, anger etc.Thus you are autonmatically away from the happiness! Thus when you are chasing happiness means you are not happy at the momement and in the attempt to get it you are desperate! This desperacy of yours is because of the Hormone Adrenalin which is secreated by your body when you are frigtened, in the mood of fighting or when you are flying in the higher altitude, Thas why this hprmone is called fight, flight or fright hormone. This hormone present in the body in excess makes one tense, his blood pressure increases, he tends to fight, he becomes aggressive and extremely voilent and stressed too much! Thus in presence of this hormone one cannot have happiness! So to neutralise this hormone and to keep your other biody hormones balanced you need to tarin your body which means you will have to do it vis your brain only! While doing so you are under stress! But once you have attained that stage then you will feel happy! Just quoted yesterday in another discussion that a child who experiences the happiness by getting a Toffee or Chcolate in the form of gift is the same as the happiness derieved by a famous and big Business tycoon after having a grand sucess in his business! Here the causes of happiness are different but the ultimate result on the body is same, both of them they are happy, they will give you the same answer how they are feeling, may be their answer will vary why they are feeling so! Thus it is ones state of mind what we call as happiness and we need not be after it or search for i anywhere that lies in ourselves! By training our body and brain we can attain this ! Meditations and Yoga are some exercises people say that they are helpful in training our brain to aquire a positive balance! Thanks! It was a good topic of discussion! Hope to haver some more interesting topics from you in future, I sincerely wish you a best of Luck!
