Once, a rich man and a poor man discussed about what ‘happiness’ is.

The poor man said: “Happiness is ‘now’.”

The rich man looked at the poor man’s little hut and his old torn clothes and said with despise: “How can you call this happiness? My happiness is having hundreds of luxurious houses and thousands of servants!”

One day, the rich man’s houses were on fire. They were completely burnt to ruins and all his servants ran away. The rich man became a beggar overnight.

On a hot summer day, the beggar who was sweating all over passed by the poor man’s little hut. He knocked at his door and asked for a little drink. The poor man took a big bowl of water and asked, ‘What do you think is happiness now?’ The beggar replied, ‘Happiness is the bowl of water in your hand now.’

So my friend, Happiness is Now not the past or future.

There is currently one response to “Happiness is Now”

    Hi Honman,

    You are right!

    The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

    Blessings
