A Little Piece Of Happiness Every Day
Want complete happiness now? Do you want it ardently and without delay? Impossible. Happiness is something intangible. It is a forbidden fruit, it is a very expensive product, rare to find anywhere, with a complex description. Some say “delicious and unexpectedly sweet, melts in your mouth”, others “unparalleled flavor, citrusy and intense”. For more refined tastes, “a velvety, full-bodied wine that heats up inside and has the aroma of the vineyards of Italy”.
Happiness is the trip we all want to take
It is the dream more than golden, it is sparkling, covered with precious stones of the most varied colors, it is made of imaginative matter, but of the specific matter found only in the confines of each human being, where not even they (we) know, for sure , where is.
Happiness is the solution to all our problems; a magic that will make them so tiny and insignificant before its magnificence. It’s that emotion that leaves us in a trance, thinking and dreaming for hours and hours, so overwhelming that it makes the real something fantastic and incredible, outstanding and full of certainties as positive as they are promising.
It’s the car of the year, the desired promotion, the long-awaited son, the incredible trip. Happiness brings it all, yes!
Wait. Just a moment! just a moment please
Sorry. Not quite… Happiness does not wear masks, but it can come disguised as material goods, great economic power and a fragile control over what we ardently desire. However, it exists.
Comes in homeopathic and delicious doses. You will be happy a little bit each day, at each step, in stages. You will glimpse a little piece of paradise, if you allow yourself to. You will feel happiness in your child’s smile, in your husband’s hug, in your friend’s praise, in the affection of someone you love much more than happiness itself.
You will be happy if you imagine yourself getting better, a little bit each day; if you know exactly how to make yourself happy and what makes you happy. If you know what you want, if you work for it, if you go ahead, even if your options and perspectives are obscure and no one will give you a word of support. Happiness comes from within, not from others.
You will be happy if you give yourself to people, listening to them, respecting them, loving your neighbor without interest. If you can choose your path wisely.
If you spread some of the love and kindness that exists in your being, you know where to find it. No gems, surreal emotions, saving magic, or hypnotic trance of pure ecstasy.
Happiness goes far beyond that, it’s something indefinable, much deeper and more interesting, comprehensive and welcoming, a nameless feeling that wears on everyone else, walks among us and accompanies us. Often, as we search the farthest shelves for the incomparable taste of this intoxicating magic that we so long for and call happiness, we don’t even realize that it is, precisely, in an accessible and easily located place ; hoping, without pretense, that we forget our fancy plans to find the sensational antidote to BECOME that happiness that we DON’T seek, but that is really magical, true, unequivocal and unique that exists for all of us, without requiring sacrifices or absurd maneuvers. A serving each day, happiness always. Free, without suffering, natural and palpable.
