There is no path to happiness. Happiness is the path

There is no Path to Happiness - Happiness is the Path Ravi a 15yr old boy while coming from his school found a purse with 1 thousand rupees in it child got happy as he got money to buy his favourite toy car which he willing to buy from last one yr. After reaching home he told his mom that he found a purse on road with some money, now he can buy its toys car. He was very happy while telling the story but his mom was not and told him to handed over this purse to nearby police station as it contain someone's hard earn money. The boy told her mom why you are not happy by seeing your child's happiness. She told him that due you know how that person is feeling right now whose purse it is?

child says no. she says he is he probably be unhappy after losing his hard earn money. Doyou still be happy after knowing this? child says no, but ask a question then what is happiness? what does it means?, as my happiness is not your happines. and mom says path to happiness is good deed and helping other. not what you are satisfied with as it could still having others happiness. Boy after this conversation went to nearby Police station and handed over the purse, but at same moment the person whose purse was it was there and feel delighted to see his purse. Ravi was not looking happy. But doing so. person after getting his purse rewarded him with a treat and acknowledge his work. eventually both got smile on their face. Both got something what they want. though Ravi got less. Ravi got lesson that "sacrifice is also a some delightfull experience" from above story we got to know that happiness could have different interpretations - depending on time and place.

but Ravi & mom tell a path to happiness is there actually a path to it. and what actually happiness is So Happiness according to Jeremy Bentham & Stuart mill is is the presence of pleasure and absence of pain. from me view. a happy life is a calculation of maximizing positive sensations and minimizing negative ones over time. "Happiness can be explored as a path or as a journey" Happiness as a path could be multiple paths but different result at different situations. Walk to infinity || A person who is motivated to climb the stair of corporate and working hard to get himself where he wants to belong but find himself unhappy at every stage as he finds someone always above him. For him happiness is above all. But even nature does work like it. So how can this possible. The happiness has to something with the moment. Power of now || A person who always wanted to be successfull gives everything what he could have enjoyed for eg - a UPSC aspirants leaving house family function for his preparation. There is nothing wrong but what if he cannot succeed. He doesn't have friends to talk and Relative to sit. all his happiness for his the aim which have no possible results. "actually the journey is more satisfactory than the result and it should be." "Happiness is deeply subjective - The very light that warms your heart can burn someone's else's." Money as Path to happiness Person could find money as tool of happiness he could have satisfied with what he achieved but what if this money comes from unethical practice? Like money laundering and corruption. The same money reason for happiness became reason of others concern as it cost someones hard pay tax money going into unethical person's pocket. for nothing in return. Happiness in Politics Choosing your candidate from your right to vote is always delightfull and seeing the result come out in your favour is even more. But the some vote in the name of caste, religion, Race in a area where development lacks could worsen the situation. It can kill meritocracy in politics, can kill future generation of ethical politicians impacting larger population as concerns. Then how this vote can make you happy? how other could take benefit from it. Development and Happiness Seeing your area getting developed is best thing to watch in your lifespan. But what if a road have to pass through your land where your house is. Do you willing to sacrifice your house for larger public interest? or you won't let it happen for your security? Ethically you should let it happen. as it you will get compensation for it and public who is annoyed from muddy Road will finally get a good road. You should be ready to sacrifice your happiness for other? as if it serve larger public interest. eventually you both get benefit out of it. Happiness and Environment This field is very critically to. if we see development as path - we lost Environment. if we environment as path - we lost larger infrastructure. Then we should actually Balance born via a sustainable development program. Environment itself is a hot source of happiness of many. Some animal found happiness in watching rising sun, some found in night, some found at trees, some found at grass. Nature teaches as best how we can find happiness in path and journey than actual destiny. for eg - Joyfull Rivers and oceans. Rivers meanders, fasten up slow up make waterfalls somewhere, give water to thirsty. Before reaching to actually destiny the ocean. So actual path to happiness is happiness itself - you cannot actually have a path for it.

as when you tries to found a path you eventually reach to where you start from. one should found its happiness in journey and Present rather than just entirely concentrating upon results, you will lost a many beautifull memories if you follow the destiny than to actuall happiness. yes happiness is subjective. "one's happiness could be other's sorrow" but you should found a balance between the two.. and should ready to sacrifice in other happiness if he could do. because sometime "sacrifice is also a source of happiness". Lastly stating. "Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of travelling"
