Happiness

i'm sitting here in front of my comp. trying to write what i'm thinking.

soo,, i just read my friend's FS and in her FS she wrote, "can somebody tell me what's the meaning of happiness?"

then i started to think...

sebenernya apa yang dimaksud 'happiness'?

how can i tell you if me self never feel the real happiness in life? haha.. but i will tell you my opinion.. menurut gue, happiness itu sesuatu yang lo rasain di saat lo udah puas sm apa yang lo capai dlm hidup lo. suatu waktu dimana lo bisa bilang 'finally...' karena disaat lo ngucapin kata itu, berarti sesuatu yang lo tunggu2 selama ini finally happen. dan siapa sih yang gak bahagia karena itu? :)

dan satu hal, i think somebody who never get satisfied with everything that he/she reach in this life couldn't feel the real happiness, karena mereka selalu pengen sesuatu yang lebih. mereka gak pernah berhenti di satu titik hidup mereka dimana seharusnya mereka bisa merefleksi diri untuk bersyukur dan merasa SANGAT bahagia dengan apa yang telah mereka capai pada titik itu karena tidak semua orang pastinya dapat merasakan hal seperti itu.

when facing their problem, the i-never-satisfied kind of people will always said 'where's my happiness? why i always have to face the problems that getting more hard more days? when can i feel happy?'
and the opposite, the i'm-satisfied-with-life kind of people will said 'masalah ini cuma salah satu halangan buat aku buat mencapai yang namanya bahagia, sementara aku udah melewati banyakbgt masalah dalam hidup, so i must survive to through this problem!'

but, one thing that really helpful to make us feel happy is, SMILE! what i mean here is smile from your deepest heart, not just the fake smile which is every body can do it, but fre from-heart smile. that makes you don't only shows that smile in your face, but also in your heart. when you smile, it feels like all your problems had blown away, gone with the wind.



by the way, i've ever read a quote that said :
happiness is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it will elude you. but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.

what a beautiful words isn't it?

i think that quote means happiness will come to you if you just relax and dont always asking where-my-happiness-is question. when you just living your life without much question about happiness, that's the time you will feel the real happiness in life.

it's really easy to say, easy to write down on a paper or computer, but can you do it? i don't think so. but optimistic will keep this life going rite?

so, keep smile, be patient, and be optimist people!
