The Role of Happiness in Our Life
Uploaded by Nature on Jun 25, 2007
It is undeniable that man, in its general sense, is one of the most complicated creatures in the world. People vary based on their unique characters and emotional features; some of them are usually sad and some others are usually happy. In my point of view, we are born to enjoy our lives and happiness is a key to achieve this goal. Due to the fact that human being is very complicated in emotional and feeling aspects, it is very difficult to describe the emotions certainly and scientifically. However, some fundamental factors such as our physical status, expectation to life and emotional and spiritual disorders affect on our pleasant feeling.
In the first place, our physical health is noteworthy. It is not rational to expect an unhealthy and sick body to show pleasant emotions! When we get sick, it is very hard to feel pleasant. Therefore, we should take care of our body if we want to raise our spiritual features.
Our expectations to life is the second point to consider. The more we lower our expectations to life, the more we feel happiness. Although the amount of our income and salary is important for us, our attitude towards how we should live has the most influence on our happiness and satisfaction.
Last but not least, let us turn our thoughts to emotional disorders such as greediness, selfishness, animosity and … that do not allow us to feel happiness. We should cure our emotional disorders, edify our spirits and put aside such evil behaviors in order to find happiness in the bottom of our heart.
To conclude, I believe that although happiness, sadness and other emotional elects in human beings are difficult to be defined and measured, it is possible that with a healthy body and spirit lower our expectations to life and enjoy it.
