Death, an end of a journey which we call life, a start of a new beginning when our body ceases to exist in this ephemeral plane of existence and we finally wake up into a new world. Maybe when one dies his/her consciousness goes beyond the body and mixes into the universe.

When one is down, one feels so low and dejected that these thoughts glide over and over again till a point comes where one give up hope of living. So, here I am bringing happiness ;D

  1. Give yourself permission to be a child again
    We are bounded by these layers of skin, but our happiness shouldn't be. When we accept emotions — fear, sadness, or anger — as natural, we are more likely to overcome them. Rejecting our emotions, positive or negative, leads to frustration and unhappiness. This causes emotional turmoil leading to a life crisis. Try to find that inner child and keep it safe and protected.

  2. Happiness is at the balance between pleasure and meaning.
    When we're at work or at home, the motive is to engage in activities that are both personally significant and entertaining. When this is not feasible, make sure you have happiness boosters, moments throughout the week that provide you with both pleasure and meaning. Regular exercise, adequate sleep, and healthy eating habits lead to both physical and mental health.

  3. Keep in mind that happiness is mostly dependent on our state of mind, not on our status or the state of our bank account.
    Barring extreme circumstances, our level of well-being is determined by what we choose to focus on and by our interpretation of external events. For example, do we view failure as catastrophic, or do we see it as a learning opportunity?

  4. Express gratitude and love daily
    We, sometimes, take our lives for granted. Learn to appreciate and savour the wonderful things in life, from good people to great food, from beauty of nature to smile of the person you love...

  5. Simplify!
    We are too busy trying to squeeze in more and more activities into less and less time. People tend to forget to KISS. Keep It Simple Stupid
