If you think wealth is the only thing to bring you happiness you live a sad life. Wealth is great to have, but that's icing on the cake to a great life. Not the reason you should be happy. It's always sad when I hear people that actually think like this. You're gonna be highly disappointed when you get wealthy (hopefully for you), and you still realize you're not fully happy. Anything tangible you obtain will only bring momentary happiness.
(1) I don't think wealth or ANYTHING for that matter will make anyone happy...There are children in Africa who don't know when their next meal will be, and they are happy with life just the way it is...
(2) A great life is an EMPTY word...It doesn't really mean shyt in the GRAND scheme of the Universe...One can have a "great life" molesting little children and getting away with it...Will that pervert's happiness be any more or less better than someone who saves young children from molestation...?
You can be happy doing what people consider evil just the same as doing what people consider good..So, happiness is NOT a good determinant of a "great life" in my opinion...Some people have NEVER experienced shyt...They born in a same old town, grew up in that same old town, married a person from that same old town, raised their children in that same old town, and they died happy in that same old town, not giving a fcuk about the other side of the fence...
(3) I know I will NEVER be happy as defined by the mainstream Western society...I could have $700 Million, have 7 Billion people as friends on Facebook, be married to Cassie and have perfect little children, and it still wouldn't make me happy...I been this way from since I can remember...
But I have accepted my fate and I don't desire anything beyond what I am trying to achieve...Therefore, I am happy in my own way...
(4) Happiness is fickle and momentary...NO ONE is constantly happy...People have a general sense of how they feel about life...Happiness can only be experienced at a given moment...
Think about this, you are a father working on a major project for your profession while baby sitting your children, and suddenly your 7 year old child destroys the presentation you spend days preparing, and now you have to start all over again, and you spend the whole telling your child to behave, but the child was just too excited, and you had no time to pay the child any attention...At that moment in time when you realize your child has destroyed all your hard work, if you were paused and asked, "are you happy?"
Please be honest, what will be your answer...? I certainly don't think it will be "I am happy"...
The point is...happiness comes and goes, and sometimes we don't even know what makes us happy...We know what gives us pleasure, but that doesn't mean we know exactly what makes us happy...Pleasure and happiness are not mutually inclusive...
Some people are happy when they suffer, because they believe their suffering has a higher purpose...
I love money because it can buy pleasure whenever I want and can afford it...Happiness comes and goes...Sometimes I am the happiest when I am alone and just making or listening to beats I have made over the years...
