Everything happens for the Good !

Many times, we find ourselves facing situations that go against our will and desires. In such moments, we often blame destiny or ourselves for not receiving what we desire, believing we are deprived of blessings. However, later on, we may come to realize that these seemingly adverse events were, in fact, blessings in disguise.

Let me share a story that touches the heart and illustrates the idea that everything that happens, happens for a reason:

Once, in a kingdom, there was a garden keeper who sent fruits daily to the king. One day, he noticed an abundance of ripe fruits – coconuts, apples, pears, and many others. Strangely, he chose to pick grapes. On his way to the palace, he couldn’t stop blaming himself for not selecting larger, more appealing fruits.

Upon arriving at the palace, the king seemed lost in thought and didn’t respond as usual. The garden keeper placed the grapes by the king’s side. Unintentionally, the king started tossing grapes towards the man and eating them himself. What was even more peculiar was that each time he threw a grape, he said, “Alhamdulillah” (which means “Thanks to God”).

After some time, the king realized the oddity of his actions and asked the man why he had been saying “Alhamdulillah” whenever he threw grapes. The man then narrated his experience, explaining that he had initially planned to bring coconuts, apples, pears, and other substantial fruits. However, I had only taken grapes that day, berating himself the entire journey to the palace. Yet, when I served the grapes to you (king), he noticed the king throwing them at him. Instead of feeling upset, he thanked God, realizing that everything happens for a reason. He couldn’t have prevented the king from doing this.

This story serves as a powerful reminder that in life, we may encounter adversity and lose hope at times. However, we should have faith in a higher power and trust that everything unfolds for a greater purpose. At times, we even lose control of ourselves, and it can be challenging to understand why certain events occur as they do. Yet, in those moments of doubt and uncertainty, it is essential to remember that there might be a grand design at play, a plan beyond our comprehension.

It’s during these moments of adversity that our patience and resilience are put to the test. We should learn to patiently bear everything, knowing that there might be a superpower controlling our destiny and plan. This belief can provide solace and strength, helping us navigate the ups and downs of life with grace and acceptance. So, let us embrace the notion that everything happens for a reason, even when the path seems unclear, and have faith that the grapes we receive today might be the blessings we need tomorrow.

The Art of Happiness!

“Happiness is a butterfly, which, when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.”

Our lives revolve around two directions. One is around our personality and the other towards other human beings. One is an an inward manifestation and another is outward manifestation. If our inner being person is happy and satisfied then it will be exhibited in his behaviour and attitude. Just as the flower itself has fragrance so it spread wherever it goes. Similarly, if we have a positive outlook on life so it will not only benefit us individually but also help humanity to grow healthy and positively. If we look around the world, will see every fifth person is suffering from anxiety, stress and depression, we should stop a flood of negative thoughts which is affecting human being potential and productivity. So if every one of us personally should strive to have positive vibes in our life if every person will have this trait then we can at least minimise it. Let’s explore the positive aspect of the term “Happiness” that’s an art of human power of the mental state.

What is happiness?

Happiness is a positive emotional state an endearing feeling characterized by feelings such as contentment, joy, and life satisfaction. Every person has different measures and different levels of happiness. Happiness is a human construct, an abstract idea with no biological basis.

What is the meaning of the word happiness?

The word happiness has many meanings like pleasure, contentment, enjoyment satisfaction, peace etc. These feelings of happiness can’t be expressed in words but they will be seen in our gestures and behaviour.

Is happiness a skill?

Happiness is a skill that can be learned like speaking Spanish or learning computer . It is a skill of the mind that can be acquired through self-effort a capacity to shape the way that we see, process and interpret our reality and the things around us. It can be developed like any other competence.”

Man is the happiest when he is young. He does not yearn for anything. He does not seek happiness in wealth and success. Whereas in the present era, mature man seeks happiness in wealth, entertainment and success. And ultimately, he is deprived of true happiness.

Is happiness related to our circumstances and life’s event?

We should keep in mind that every situation and event will come as a test in our life, and acceptance is the key to solving evproblemlems. Because even the smallest thing can make. And sometimes, we miss happiness due to a lack of understanding and awareness about the situation.

Happiness is also related to our situation for instance if a child scores outstanding performance in the curriculum that givesesstoo to s his parents. unmatched happiness. So there are ups and down in human life. Man can’t always be happy or in grief.

Seeking happiness with others, right or wrong?

Yes, true! The key is to cultivate and maintain loving, faithful relationships with other people.
By empathizing with others, by helping or serving them, we can experience happiness. One can never be happy by displeasing or violating another’s highlights

Happiness cannot be attained by hurting someone’s self-respect or causing physical emotional or mental harm to other. A person feels real happiness by being polite and giving their due rights. Man can never attain happiness by nurturing selfishness and hatred in his mind.

Remember, “Money Can’t Buy Happiness” it’s the right quote. Though it can bring temporary happiness, that will not lasting happiness. So wealth is one aspect of happiness. But your money can bring happiness in other’s life by sharing it.

They don’t hold on to resentment or ill feeling. As this will disturb your peace of mind. Happy people don’t allow themselves to be controlled by negative emotions or memories of the past. They are not vengeful and easily forgive others for their mistakes.

Cheerfulness and positivity connected with happiness ?

Yes! we can’t change the past as well can not predict the future. So always be optimistic about everything. Do some selfless work, change your paradigm, change your frame of mind and then go find a higher cause. Do something useful with your life, do something that will bring meaning and value to you and others around you, and contribute positively in a way that will make you internally and externally happy. And your happiness will be multiplied if you bring a smile to someone’s life.

Practising gratitude can be an antidote to sadness and negativity. And it’s been proven that practising gratitude can rewire your brain to improve your happiness levels in the long run!
