I am never happy when people tell me I should be happy about something.
I want to decide for myself whether I'm happy or not, not have happiness dumped on me by others, that's so depressing.

I think positive thinking is happiness and negative thinking is unhappiness.If one can take positive points from everything he will remain happy.If at the every step you falter is taken in the sense that it is a learning experience then life is beautiful.

Happiness is very relative. What makes you happy might make me sad. The irony with it, sometimes, is that you wait for something all along hoping that it will make you happy, but in the end you find out that you are not happy after all. So you need to find the joy of living life everyday through work or play. That makes me happy My work could be better, so i am not happy to the fullest as yet.

Often the pursuit of something is more important than the end result of that pursuit.

My funda about life, happiness, god and death were very much cleared after reading to Dalai Lama, Swami Vivekananda and Osho.

Reading spiritual literature of some people is like getting rebirth.

happy is unhappy and unhappy is happy when they are with us but we are happy when happy is with us and unhappy when unhappy is with us.

When you add completions in what you are saying, you makes other unhappy

I have not started wailing because you have problem with my posts.

Because you have deep roots of hate in your heart.

You need to continuously hammer your mind with positive things (reading / talks/ music / �). It is not a single day task. Your have to run behind your mind for many months to control it.
