Without the spirit of gratitude, no amount of blessings would activate the feeling of happiness in one's mind.
~ Hafiz
Any mind that lacks the spirit of gratitude knows nothing about the feeling of happiness.
No level of pleasure from any material possession compares to the feeling of unconditional happiness.
The world is drastically changing, but happiness will always remain a gift that can only be received from within.
Where there is happiness, the need for pleasure isn't highly necessary, but where there is pleasure, the gift of happiness is still highly needed. Try not to mistake the two.
Happiness is a tenant that would only move into your life if you consistently focus on the positive side of your life.
Money and love from others don't bring happiness. They can only bring some pleasurable feelings. Positive frequent thoughts are the only things that can produce the feeling of happiness that one desperately seeks.
