We are endlessly looking for an answer to a question about happiness-what it is and how to get it.Some of us say that being loved is the same as being happy,others are not so romantic and say that having mended shoes is also being happy.Both categories of people are right,actually.A blind girl can see more than an adult congressman with lots of meetings and official ceremonies.Both will they say that they are happy?A kid kissed by his/her mom is happy indeed.A cat washed by its owner is happy too.The definition of happiness is very relative.In order to find one's own happiness they have to find themselves in the era of technical streams and floods.Today keyboards and TV screen push us towards solitude.Being lonely is not being happy...We don't know or just forgot how to greet each other in the morning,afternoon and evening,because we are too busy and concentrated on ourselves too much that we never notice the others...It has become normal to send a virtual postcard instead of a handwritten one(but the second can make somebody happier!).We know only rushy hours and rating systems.This knowledge doesn't make us happy but it makes us informed.Somebody might argue and say it is all wrong-being informed is the same as being with good cash and a good family,globally thinking.Yes,it is so,but we forget that making money does not bring happiness.Spending money brings happiness just the very period of time you are spending the money.Having spent it all you feel miserable again,and forget about your being happy...We are always interested in the life of other people.
