True happiness

For many years everything you thought would bring you happiness when accomplished has not brought you happiness. Why is that? It’s simple if you care to understand it. Those things you thought would bring happiness money, cars, homes, girlfriends or your wife all exist outside yourself. Happiness can only be found within. It’s not simply a state of mind, but a feeling, an experience that all is right with you and the world.

I see your thoughts but what about the wars, poverty, hunger, violence how can I be happy with the world in such a negative state. It’s simple, first accept the state of the world how it is and then accept that for the most part you’re powerless to change it. You can simply live your life as a example of your beliefs and walk your path knowing that those who practice violence will one day learn there is another way.
