    Reading: BEING HAPPY

    You may have defects, be anxious and sometimes, live irritated, but do not forget that your life is the
    greatest enterprise in the world. Only you can prevent it from going into decadence. There are many that need
    you, admire you and love you.
    I would like to remind you that being happy is not having a sky without storms, or roads without
    accidents, or work without fatigue, or relationships without disappointments.
    Being happy is finding strength in forgiveness, hope in one’s battles, security at the stage of fear, love
    in disagreements.
    Being happy is not only to treasure the smile, but that you also reflect on the sadness. It is not just
    commemorating the event, but also learning lessons in failures. It is not just having joy with applause, but also
    having joy in anonymity.
    Being happy is to recognize that it is worthwhile to live, despite all the challenges, misunderstandings
    and times of crises.
    Being happy is not inevitable fate, but a victory for those who can travel towards it with your own being.
    Being happy is to stop being a victim of problems but become an actor in history itself. It is not only to
    cross the deserts outside of ourselves, but still more, to be able to find an oasis in the recesses of our soul. It is
    to thank God every morning for the miracle of life.
    Being happy is not being afraid of one’s feelings. It is to know how to talk about ourselves. It is to beat
    with courage when hearing a “no”. It is to have the security to receive criticism, even it is unfair. It is to kiss the
    children, pamper the parents, and have poetic moments with friends, even if they hurt us.
    Being happy means allowing the free, happy and simple child inside each of us to live; having the
    maturity to say, “I was wrong”; having the audacity to say “forgive me”. It is to have sensitivity in expressing “I
    need you”; to have the ability of saying, “I love you.” So that your life becomes a garden full of opportunities for
    being happy.
    In your spring-time, may you become a lover of joy. In your winter, may you become a friend of wisdom.
    And when you go wrong along the way, you start all over again. Thus you will be passionate about life. And
    you will find that happiness is not about having a perfect life but about using tears to water tolerance, losses to
    refine patience, failures to carve serenity, pain to lapidate pleasure, obstacles to open windows of intelligence.
    Never give up. Never give up on the people you love. Never give up from being happy because life is
    an incredible show. And you are a special human being!
