Be Careful ,What You Wish For

It is a strange world we wish for happiness, but we succumb to misery.

Let me tell you a real-life story that I experienced recently.

I was thinking like most of us do.

If I had a million in my bank account,I will be the most happiest person.

Untill recently, I encountered an acquaintance who was in misery in spite of having the millions.

He was disturbed by his mental chatter of many wavering thoughts and lost his happiness.

Here ,I was, and many of us thinking materialistic possessions will bring happiness.

I learnt from this individual that possession doesn't bring happiness and peace.

It is the contentment and seeking the Infinite that brings happiness to the one.

Besides, it is by giving and sharing to less fortunate, which increases the happy hormones which radiate the positive energy in us and others we come across.

As such, it is good to have materialistic wishes within the joined palm of the hand that it is within our control and it doesn't cause misery.

Be contented with what you have rather than what you can have which brings happiness and peace within.

    When one places materials and money 1st in life, others will definitely fall 2nd or under. Then suspicion will creep in, greed for more will take over. More will never be enough. But, when one places God 1st, then God will take over. Then you shall be Godly and able to hear His voice clearer and understands that all materials and money are just temporary BUT IN HIM WE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.

Therefore, no effort is more worthwhile for a human being than the exertion of all one's faculties to take steps on this path." 8.We lose our balance, not be...
