To me, happiness is contagious, it spread goodness. It increases if you make others happy, if you do what you love. It gives you peace of mind if you see your loved ones happy, smiling. Happiness is like cool bright sunny day filled with joy. It’s like evening breeze after a hot day and you are laying on green grass under the twilit sky. Happiness is like sitting in the balcony with a hot coffee when the sun sets. All over, it is so soothing to the mind, makes you feel happy from inside.
I think, happiness varies from person to person. It is not necessary what makes me happy, others will even like it. They may hate it. You may not be happy seeing some particular event/thing what makes the other person happy. I find happiness in looking at the star-studded sky. You might feel bore doing that.
So, what is more important? Making choices to keep others happy or to make yourself happy? Is it true that you can’t make others happy if you’re not really? Also they say you cannot be happy if your loved ones are unhappy. What is right?
You cannot make peoples happy all the time. You even would not know how you pissed them off or even what to do with yourself to make them happy! Happiness is so easy to reach yet so hard to keep. Happiness comes & goes. To stay with, it requires a lot of sacrifices. Sacrifice for others, of your choice. Do what they want, it will make them happy, even if you do not wanted it.
You think you are living your own life? No. You wish to live the way you wanted, but eventually you end up living others life. The life of yours is the life others wanted you to live. We all do the same. And we frown at them who do follow their hearts, we call them rebels, unsocial, awkward etc.
Life is not an easy game to play, my friend. In your life, you make your choices & moves, your decisions and gradually they become your life. Your choices & decisions control your life. It can make your life dazzle among others, also it can ruin whatever you earned so far. So, make your moves wisely. There is no second chance.
Think from your heart and prefer choices which can make you happy. Do only that what YOU truly want. Leave what don't make you happy. If you cant leave, do it less? Listen to your heart, it keeps you happy. Life is yours, choice is yours; in fact, the responsibility is also yours. Let us not regret it later, do it NOW.
Of course, others play important roles in our lives but you must be the most important to yourself. Love yourself, respect yourself. If you are right, if you are honestly & logically happy, nobody can be unhappy with you. Sacrifices are cool but not all the time, you know.

PS: If your choice makes you sad, remember that happiness is a state of mind. It will be back soon. Stay loved. Stay Happy.:-)
