Should we be happy all the time?

We often misinterpret our comforts with happiness. If being in an air conditioned room during summers makes you feel happy, then you are surely not experiencing happiness. It's just temporary. It's like an illusion.Then what exactly is happiness?


We often try to prohibit sensing the sorrows that come across our way. Because all of us are constantly reminded to be happy and positive! Everybody shows off that they are so happy and positive all the while. 

When you see them, you ask yourself,  ‘Am I the only one in grief ? Is it just me experiencing aloofness, while everybody else is relishing!


You tell yourself 'you also need to be cheerful and carefree of the world'. You see someone hanging out with friends, and you suddenly feel that you need to catch up with your buddies too!    

But is being always happy actually good? Being always happy, simply means you're hiding. You're hiding your emotions to others. And you in turn hide your current state of mind to your own self!

Is this healthy? Is this positive?                                          


No, definitely not. You are a human. You are definitely going to experience sorrow, envy, anger, irritation and all sorts of emotions. Once you accept what you feel, it won't hurt much. Because feeling a certain kind of way, a certain kind of sentiment is natural. It won't make you a terrible person if you feel envious about your fellow mates, this is a natural feeling. You can't control it by saying I shouldn't feel this way. You shouldn't be dominating your feelings all the time!


Also, you can't actually be positive 24/7. You're definitely going to ponder the other way round. You can't evade thinking in the negative direction! We as individuals, think of all the possible ways, all the probable outcomes. It's a more natural way of dealing with things. You can't escape the "what if" question running in your mind.


Let your feelings, emotions sink in. Let the adverse thoughts run in your mind for a while. Think the cons before the pros.Because considering both positives and negatives will only help you make a better conclusion.


Unless and until,you aren't aware of the cons, you aren't going to actually be acquainted with the pros. Because only after feeling wretched, you will be able to know what a glimpse of happiness is!
