Happiness is not a goal to achieve at some time off in the future.
Happiness is momentary and can be found in everyday life if we know how to recognize and embrace it. For instance, when we are enjoying ourselves with families and friends we can appreciate it at that moment and be genuinely happy. During cold weather, when we are enjoying a warm drink, we can be truly happy and appreciate that moment of joy. We can also wish for everyone to be happy and these kinds of attitudes will make our own lives more joyful and meaningful. However, continually striving for more and more happiness will only end in disappointment. Therefore, we should embrace every small happiness and be happy.
