Dear friends, I am going to speak to you about a beautiful human experience – That is happiness, which I choose to call “an orange from heaven”. But why do I call happiness an ‘orange from heaven? Please lend me your ears and you will know why.
Happiness is a decision, not something that comes and goes when you are sad or things go wrong. We are the only one who can change that emotion. Those who put their happiness in the hands of others are vanishing their right to be happy. If any of you have ever gone through the harmful act of depression or a serious disappointment, then I’m in the right place talking about the right thing.
Life is beautiful. I’m not guessing. I’m not betting. I’m sure that it is! Not because I’ve had a perfect life full of friends and success and a gorgeous wife and no stress, no money problems, no injuries, no mistakes, bla bla bla! These are only external factors, and we must not let “tragedies” destroy our happiness. Happiness is a decision!
Don’t you see that life is perfect?! You were born. You are alive. You are able to breathe. You are the great result of evolution. A perfect human being, unique and unrepeatable! You are unique and unrepeatable! Isn’t that perfection?! But remember, we are not infallible. We fall down so many times in our lives. We screw everything up sometimes. And what? Isn’t imperfection a perfection as well? Because when you learn from your errors and climb up to the exit of the hole, what do you get then? If you’re not able to answer it is because you’ve never tried to climb out of the hole and learn from your mistakes. What you did instead was to find an easy way. Depression. Walking around the bottom of the hole waiting for someone to throw a rope and pull you out. But I’ll tell you what you get if you apply yourself.
Success and the purest form of happiness! Happiness is a decision!
