What does a sense of happiness depend on?

The feeling of happiness depends on many factors. However, it is us, regardless of our current objectively or subjectively perceived life situation, who can feel happy or unhappy. Mostly it depends on our thoughts about happiness, it depends on ourselves whether we allow ourselves to feel happy.

Some thoughts related to the content of H. D. Thoreau’s book.

"Most people, (…) as a result of sheer ignorance and faulty reasoning, are so preoccupied with contrived cares and excessively heavy duties that they fail to reap the more beautiful fruits of life."

Sense of happiness and God’s guidance

No matter what life situation I find myself in, I feel happy because I believe and know that God is watching over me. He has already protected me from death several times. He blesses me and my wife, He blesses our marriage, I have something to eat and a place to live: these are additional facts that also provide a sense of happiness.

Have a dream and make it happen. Nothing will do itself, the work has to be done.

It is worth having dreams. You can follow the example of those who have achieved success through work and faith. For me, a good example of perseverance and work leading to success are the recent achievements of a football team from Lublin: RKS Motor Lublin.

What do people find happiness in?

People look for happiness in different activities, they look for happiness in having things, they look for happiness in different kinds of experiences, stimulants, etc. We want to feel good and this is natural. In order to 'catch up' with happiness, people create plans whose implementation is supposed to lead them to feel happy.

Our limitations and fears

What limits us? Why don't we feel full happiness? I think one of the main reasons is the fears we experience. If we got rid of the fears, our sense of happiness would be at a higher level.
