Life is like an hourglass, every drop of sand counts. It means that we should not waste every second of our life. We should know how to treasure every moment that we shared with our loved ones. We should find true happiness inside us. True happiness is not about the happiness that you’ve felt when you heard some good news. It’s not about the material things that we have. It’s not about the high grades that we received and it’s not about the awards that we achieved. It’s about how are we satisfied of what we have with ourselves through our hardworks and faith in God.
The first thing is we have to be true with ourselves. Being truthful in ourselves is very difficult to do because your main opponent is your own self. We all know that the truth hurts, but the thing is, you have to accept first what you are and who you are before anyone will accept you because life is too short to someone else.
The second thing on how we can find our true happiness is loving. There are so many kinds of love. Love with our God, love with our self, love with our family, love with another person and love with our enemy. But all of these lead us to the happiness that we seek for. Although we describe them in many different ways, we show our love to them on the same thing like giving us our trust, faith and concern. It is so wonderful to be love and it is the greatest thing that anyone could have.
The third thing to find true happiness is having faith in God. In our darkest days, we always seek God and call God’s presence and ask for protection. God never fails us. Not everything that we ask from him will be granted on what time we want to have it because God has his own plans for us. People thought that God had never heard their prayers, but the truth is, God is ready to give it to them but it is not yet the right time for them to have it. So we should learn how to wait and have faith in God because God has bigger plans for us than we had for ourselves.
