Topic #7: Happiness

The feeling of being happy is one of the essential motives that makes us do different and many things. I can prove that the whole things that we do are considered as seeking of happiness.  Ask yourself about anything, "why am I doing this?", and after each answer, ask "then what?".  The final answer will be "I want to be happy".

For me, there are many things that make me happy. Being with my favorite friends, achieving goals, helping people and trying to make them feel happy can make me the happiest person on this world.  However, the most important factor, that makes me happy, is inner peace. I believe that whatever I have, money, job, friends, family ...etc, without inner peace, I cannot be happy.

Finally, when I think deeply what happiness means, I remember one of the sayings of Prophet Mohammed, peace and blessings be upon him, which is: “Whoever among you wakes up secure in his property, healthy in his body, and he has his food for the day, it is as if he were given the entire world.”
