REAL HAPPINESS – STORY
A beautiful and rich woman who wears expensive clothes and lives in luxury, went to see a counsellor.
She said to him, “My life is a witch.. I feel empty no matter how much I have. Life drags on without meaning and without a goal. I have everything. The only thing that is missing is peace and happiness. Please guide me to happiness.”
The counselor called a maid who was mopping his office floor.
He said to the rich woman, “I am now going to tell the servant girl how to bring happiness. You listen without interrupting.”
The maid also put down the broom and sat on a chair and started saying.
“I am a poor and orphan, I have nobody and nothing. I couldn’t sleep. Couldn’t eat. Can’t laugh at anyone. I thought I might end my life.
One day when I was coming home from work, a cat followed me. It was drizzling outside and I felt sorry to see the cat. I allowed it to come inside my house. I gave it some milk to drink as it was very thirsty. It drank all the milk and rubbed my feet with love.
Since the past 3 months I first smiled !!!
I then questioned myself. “If one small thing I did for a little cat made me happy, I thought, why shouldn’t I do it for many others and change my state of mind?”
The next day I gave porridge to my neighbor who was sick. His joy knew no bounds.
Every day I help many people and make them happy.
I doubt if there is anyone who sleeps more peacefully and enjoys food than I do today.
I discovered that the happiness lies in giving it to others.”
Hearing this, the rich woman cried and screamed.
She had everything she could buy with green paper.
But one thing money can’t buy:
“HAPPINESS”
She doesn’t have it.
The beauty of life is NOT how much happy you are, but, how much others are happy because of you.
Happiness is Not a destination; It is A trip…
Happiness is Not future; It is the present…
Happiness is Not acceptance. It is a conclusion…
Happiness is not in what you have. It’s about who you are!
“Get happiness by making others happy. The world and God will be happy with you!!!
