Happiness is considered very important in life.
Why is it difficult to define?
What factors are important in achieving happiness?
Happinessis the life-time pursuit of almost every person around this world. They seek happiness in their own ways based on their own understading to this abstract concept. That is exactly why it is hard for us to give happiness a definition that would conceive all the people. Because different people focuses on various factors in their life for pursuring happiness. But generally speaking, the following points, I consider,are the most essential elements that can lead our human beings to happiness.
Iwould like to put the peace and harmony of this society in the first place asit is the pre-requisite of individuals’ happiness. There is no doubt that theaverage degree of sense of happiness felt by citizens in coutries that suffer war and chaos is far lower than that experienced by peopple in peaceful countries. For a person who live with bomb explosion, high crime rate and agovernment who have not enough resources and capability to make sure of itscitizens’ security, how can we expect that people’s happiness can beguarrantied? Only in a country where everything is in order and every one livesin peace, may persons pay their attention to seek what they really want at the mental level and enjoy the happiness.
Thesecond factor, I suppose, is one’s determination to do what they should dotowards happiness. Confronted with tough situations that inevitably met on theroad, some people may lose their confidence and hope and stop moving forward.For those people, happiness will be an luxurious daydream, easy to imagine butdifficult to achieve.
Last but not least, whether one can get happiness also depends on his attitude to life that is what he believes is the most valuable in his life. For example, somewho take family as the most important can obtain happiness only if he mayfrenquently enjoy joyful family life with his parents, wife and children. And some who only think money is the most essential will be dedicated to spend hislife time earning money to satisfy himself and acquire his happiness. For this kind of desire, usually, it is hard to bring happiness to people.
To sum up, besides of the enviormentwhere people live affects people’s pursuit of happiness, their determination and recognition to happiness is also important for them in seeking happiness. |
