Some people think that having costly cars, luxurious homes, and money for clubs will make them happy, but they forget that these things are all made of material things, and materials don't live forever. Nevertheless, having money is also crucial.
While some believe that smoking, drinking and flexing with different girls is the true happiness in life they also forgot that those things have side effects that might be harmful to their life.
True happiness is having what you want when you want it at the right time. Providing for my family, having peace of mind and sound health are what make me happy. Those things are the foundation of my happiness, because what is the usefulness of my money when I can't take care of my family?
What is the meaning of rest of mind when I can't make my family happy? Seeing my family happy is the major thing that brings happiness to me. Whenever I can't take care of them I am always restless and unhappy.
Some others believe that once they have money to lavish and club they are happy without realizing that that kind of life doesn't mean you are happy. When there is no money to live that kind of life it means such a person will be sad until he can get money again, my question is what if he or she didn't have money again does that mean their happiness is gone?
Don't get me wrong, sometimes it is good to enjoy but that shouldn't define our happiness, that is why such things shouldn't be the reason why we are happy.
I'm the architect of my happiness, I am the source of my joy and I am the reason why my happiness never goes away because the happiness I derived within is all that matters, aside from seeing my family. Nothing can give everlasting happiness than your peace of mind.
A friend once told me that he is happy when he flirts with different girls and I asked him, "What if you don't have money to flirt for a long time, does that mean you won't be happy for long?" He couldn't answer my question but I know he never understood what I meant by that.
I can say I have true happiness right now because I understand that I can't have it all and my wife too is an understanding person so anything I give at home she always manages it for me, and whenever there is more to give I don't hesitate to do so.
What can make a man more happy is to have an understanding partner. There was a time during the Covid Period that I didn't have work to do and my wife came up with an idea of generating funds and both of us tried it and it worked out. I was very happy about this.
But immediately the lockdown was called off and I returned to the site. Everything was back to normal, I always remembered the struggling days and how she managed with me. This created more happiness and I couldn't stop taking care of my wife because she got my back when I had nothing.
This kind of happiness will never stop. It's an everlasting happiness because my family is everything to me.
