I was always looking for happiness not just today but always, how to be happy, how to make others happy and so on. Let's find happiness through a short story.
Shovon has been facing a question for a few days now. Coming to the new city, the only question on his mind is "what's the secret of happiness". People have been searching for the answer to that question for many years. He has kept himself busy looking for the exact same question. After so much searching, he came to know that there is a wise man in the towm. Where thousands of people go to that person with thousands of questions. The wise man solves all human questions. Then Shovon also planned to go to that person. He went to that town without delay. Shovan noticed from a distance, there was a lot of people. Everyone is coming to that wise man and asking all kinds of questions. The wise man is answering all their questions and the questioners are all satisfied. Shovan waited for his chance, when his turn came he asked the question.

-Tell me what you want?
-I want to know the answer to a question that everyone wants to know.
-What's that?
-Please tell me what's the secret of happiness?
-I have a shortage of time. I'll answer this question for you, but a little late. Are you new to this town
-Yes! I have never been to this town before.

Then I will ask you to do one thing. The wise man put a spoon in Shovan's hand and put two drops of oil in that spoon. He told him, "Since you are new to this town, roaming around for while" Then he took the spoon in his hand and went out. But as long as he was walking down the street his whole attention was on that spoon. Not a single point turned his attention to the other things. He nothing noticed what was around him. After roaming around for a long, he went back to that wise man and showed him the spoon and said, "Look, The two drops of oil is all right." Then the wise man said, " How was the town?"

I was just aiming it at the spoon. I didn't notice anything around. Because I didn't have that opportunity. The oil in the spoon wouldn't be right if I paid attention to the surrounding environment.

Then the wise man said to Shovon, since you have not noticed anything around you, take the spoon again and roaming around. Then he came out again with a spoon in his hand, then he began to notice everything around him. Beautiful gardens, trees, and those big hills, he has now taken care of everything in the city. When he saw the city, he went back to the wise man. When the person went and stood in front. Then he noticed that there was not a drop of oil in the spoon in his hand. Then he said to the wise man, "I did not notice my spoon when I went to notice everything around me." Then the wise man said to Shovan, "When you were looking at the oil in your spoon, you did not notice anything around you." In the same way, when you looked at the surroundings, you could not look at the spoon in your hand.

This is life, the oil of the spoon in your hand is your responsibility, and all that is around you is the happiness of your life. You can't enjoy the happiness of life when you focus too much on your responsibilities. Your happiness is gone from your surroundings and you are stuck in your responsibilities. In the same way when you enjoy only the happiness of your life but you do not take responsibility. So this is the secret of happiness in life, that is to balance. If you can move forward by balancing the responsibilities of life and happiness together, then life is truly happy.
