Laughter is an expression of happiness and of sudden joy. It is an action or eventual manner of a happy person. Happiness springs up when a person feels good or has experienced contentment in life.
A person can be happy all the time. However, that possibility can be overshadowed by negative feelings such as depression, guilt, dissatisfaction and loss. Certain circumstances can impede the positive stimulus and response. However, they can be overcome if the person acknowledges optimism and happiness within himself.
It is natural for a person to experience grief. But, don't be overruled by negative feelings. They could greatly affect not only the emotional health, but the physical and psychological aspects as well.
If you are in a melancholy stage, don't let it prevail over your entire life. If you want to seek happiness, then, it can come eventually. If you think something holds you to experience the feeling of wholeness, you can do something to break it apart. As you may see, the key to happiness is not from other people or in material things. People and possessions may be considered supplementary elements and supports for you to gain the happiness you deserve. The key to happiness starts within you. It lies within you. It is you, the individual. If you see yourself as the center of your own universe, then you have the reason to be the controller of your own world.
As you have commonly known, a key is the material thing that can open a closed door, a cabinet, a chest or in any tangible thing that has been locked. The function of a key is so crucial. It unlocks a closed thing to let someone see or grab something that might be important. That may be a treasure or any thing that can provide a person satisfaction. If you personify yourself as a key, then, you can unlock and open what
is within you. If it is empty, you can let some things into you to fill yourself up. If you figuratively see yourself as a key, then you can use yourself to unlock and to open wide for good things to come.
It is really up to a person if he wants to be happy or not. Something is applied to something or to someone that is because a certain intention if formulated. If your intention is to be happy, you must do something for your aspiration to be realized. As you may see, the attitude of a person is the biggest factor in the attainment for happiness. If you apply good attitude, not only in yourself but to others as well, you may see good results. If something is good and worthwhile, happiness may come subsequently or be felt harmoniously.
Many articles and books have stated differently about the real key to happiness. Many have concluded it is the attitude of a person, while others have mentioned it is the Supreme Being or the person that you love. If you believe in God, there could be no denying of the fact that many or most people regard Him as the source of happiness. But how come other people still feel loneliness, still suffer from depression even if they believe that a Supreme Being exists?
Perhaps, it is because their doors of acceptance are closed. As being stated and based on popular belief, God is the source of happiness. But if you don't let God put the happiness within you, there is still the feeling of emptiness. According to Christian teachings, God has given His people the freewill. Thus, people have been granted the freedom to do as they please with certain restrictions. If you don't let yourself feel happy nor do something to make you a happy person, then you will not really be happy.
There can be different things that you can do for you to feel the happiness that you deserve. But that key is just within you. It is you who have unused the key if you feel sad. It is you who have the prerogative to be happy.
