Happiness is...

Travelling;

Being ourselves;

Enjoying the moment and not thinking “if only …”

Eating on a budget;

Appreciating simple things like the air we breathe;

Enjoying nature.

“Happiness is … not striving for Happiness”

is a quote which is true to the core.

If we go looking for Happiness, we’ll never find it. It takes a very, very long time to understand this concept but all we can do is appreciate the moments we have now rather than think,

‘if only … I had some nicer trainers/extra money/a car etc etc’.

What matters is that moment because it’ll never return.

A chance glimpse of sunshine

goes in a moment.

What happens next

is a momentary thought.

Live for the moment because Happiness cannot be sought.

Hi @Kol-Colleen_2018 ,

Thank you for sharing it with us.

Do you live in London, or just visited it? I can agree that travelling makes me happy. We should discover the world around us.

PS.: Feel free to take a look at this What makes a good post? topic. Also, I recommend you read these What are Connect topics? article before your next post.

Hey @Kol-Colleen_2018 those are words of true wisdom. I have another favourite quote that states travelling is the only thing you buy that makes you richer. It’s good that you find the good on a daily basis. Perhaps you were going to work when you took the photo?

I think this couldn’t be said any better @Kol-Colleen_2018 . All of those words are so inspiring and motivating. Life is in the simple things and in those “small” meaningful things we find in true friendship, family, dreams. Really touching topic. I somehow connect it with the movie I watched recently “Bohemian Rhapsody”. Did you watch it?

I just wanted to share your thoughts with others so we can all appreciate this ray of light in our days @Shirley . Hope you find it inspiring.

No I haven’t watched that film but yes, it’s being content with the things we have in our lives that matter.

Not some fanciful idea we have in our minds about what Happiness is.

:+1:

We appreciate others better when we see that everyone is connected in some way.

Yes @MoniDi

Exactly. I was on my way to work when I saw the quote.

It reminded me of the countless times I experience crowded buses and trains and thought of how difficult it was to stay calm!

That is a nice quptempo, thanks!

(Travelling is the only thing you buy that makes you richer - too true!)
