On happiness..once again!

Was just sitting pointlessly staring at the computer screen..Reading updates of the Facebook wall..Bored that i didn't have anything else to do..or may be because i didn't feel like doing anything else..It wasn't Pitch dark..and the Almost full moon shined brightly..it was not really cold as it should have been around this week of a month like December and a place like Satara..and suddenly...there came a hustle sound from no where..! I was surprised and went by my window to see what was happening..and there was no human in sight..! I realised that the sound came from trees..the leaves were fluttering..the branches were swinging..it was all..the magic of the midnight breeze...unexpected and yet..gave a euphoria..of don't know what..! happens...isn't it?
                                                         I wonder..over these years..as human beings evolved..from apes to what they are today..whether happiness has a clear definition! "Happiness is a mental state of well-being characterized by positive emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy" defines Wikipedia..(we are so addicted of googl'ing everything these days..couldn't help..! ) But there isn't a defined way or manner one can feel happy..! Its different for every person..in every different situation...in every point of time..! But happiness does work wonders..(not giving a class on positiveness or anything like that..) But seriously..it does..!
                                                        Everyone of us might have experienced this feeling..the one you feel on the days in summer eating a roadside ice cream..the one you feel when you find your kinder garden nursery rhyme book..the one you collectively experience after winning a match even in your own society..when your favorite song is surprisingly played on the radio..or yes the one..when you just feel good about the rain drops falling from the sky..!
                                                       If being happy is so simple..why don't we do it all the time..! Why don't we feel happy about the little flower that peeps into our balcony from a little clay plot?? why don't we dance inside to the tunes that the rain drops compose? why don't we feel the bliss when we here a bell ringing at a temple ?? Why don't we ourselves feel happy like a kid when we see toddlers running up and down the house??
                                                     We often crib about not being happy...when asked "how are you?" we are most probably "fine or good" but never "happy"..!! Why do we keep on searching for reasons to be happy when we surrounded with plenty of them..! I don't want to comment on materialistic or not our happiness is... that is a different issue to be talked about..! but what refrains us from being happy..?? the answer is we ourselves..!! If a little breeze for a minute could totally change my state of mind...whats so difficult every time!!
                                                        I thought..may be scribbling few words right now will make me happy..so I did..Who knows..may be someone will feel happy reading them..:) :)
