Pudiéramos hacer una lista interminable de aquellas cosas que nos hacen felices y aún así, no saber donde radica nuestra felicidad, poniéndonos en una búsqueda incansable, sin saber con claridad, lo que realmente estamos buscando. Algo así como lo expresaba hace años atrás una triste frase: ¡Éramos felices y no lo sabíamos!

Como ya señalábamos lo que nos hace felices se encuentra estrechamente relacionado con lo que somos como personas, nuestras actitudes, las creencias, los aprendizajes que hemos tenido, las expectativas que nos planteamos, las personas que tenemos a nuestro alrededor, la satisfacción en lo que hacemos y las emociones y sentimientos que cultivamos.

La introspección es el método sugerido para reconocer, detectar, determinar lo que nos hace felices, detenernos a pensar en ello, en conocernos mejor a nosotros mismos y es en este proceso de autoconocimiento que vamos perfilando lo que nos hace felices. Si en nuestra reflexión nos enfocamos en los cuatro pilares: ser, hacer, tener y sentir tendremos una visión más clara de lo que es la felicidad para nosotros y que requerimos para estar allí. De tal manera que al definir que es la felicidad y reconocer que nos hace felices, la tan buscada felicidad no nos pasará por un ladito sino que sentiremos su presencia y la disfrutaremos a plenitud.

Por otra parte, al ser la felicidad un sentimiento, pertenece más a nuestro mundo interior que a los elementos externos con los que a veces la asociamos, si bien es cierto que alcanzar metas personales y profesionales, tener los recursos que requerimos para solventar situaciones, salir a pasear o darnos gustos, tener personas a nuestro alrededor que nos amen y a quienes amamos pueden ser parte de lo que suma para ser feliz pero, nada de ello garantiza que nos sintamos felices.

Gracias por ser y estar

Happiness has been defined in many ways and from different fields. It is likely that in our life experiences we may or may not agree with many of them, for example:

For the philosopher it may be the ultimate goal of existence that can be found in self-realization, in the idea of the absence of suffering or finding pleasure and enjoyment in life.

For the sociologist it can be a set of conditions (food, shelter, health, education, recreation...) that when we have them covered we are happy. For the psychologist it is an inner state linked to positive emotions. From the spiritual point of view, the concept of happiness is associated to being, to the essence, so the more you are (being yourself), the closer you get to happiness.

Beyond the ideas, theories and arguments, happiness is a feeling that each one experiences it from their way of seeing life, from their beliefs, in this sense we can find people who assume that happiness does not exist, for others are moments that come as bursts and for a third group happiness does exist, it is not a goal to reach but it is the way, therefore happiness is lived and felt in the day to day.

This gives us an idea of how subjective happiness is, what makes me happy does not necessarily make you happy, different situations can make us feel happy but undoubtedly everything depends on how significant it is for each one, hence the attitude towards life is an important element to assess our happiness. Have you ever wondered what happiness is for you?

If we understand happiness as a state of satisfaction in which we feel in well-being, to experience it we need to have a positive attitude that, among so many elements, contemplates acceptance and flow within the experiences we have. Acceptance because it is a way to keep moving forward in the face of the circumstances that surround us and flow because we let go of our resistances, moving with what we have while giving way to our own changes.

What makes me happy?

We could make an endless list of those things that make us happy and still not know where our happiness lies, putting us in a tireless search, without knowing clearly what we are really looking for. Something like a sad phrase expressed years ago: We were happy and we didn't know it!

As we have already pointed out, what makes us happy is closely related to what we are as people, our attitudes, beliefs, the learning we have had, the expectations we have, the people we have around us, the satisfaction in what we do and the emotions and feelings we cultivate.

Introspection is the suggested method to recognize, detect, determine what makes us happy, to stop and think about it, to know ourselves better and it is in this process of self-knowledge that we outline what makes us happy. If in our reflection we focus on the four pillars: being, doing, having and feeling, we will have a clearer vision of what happiness is for us and what we need to be there. In such a way that by defining what happiness is and recognizing what makes us happy, the much sought-after happiness will not pass us by, but we will feel its presence and enjoy it to the fullest.

On the other hand, as happiness is a feeling, it belongs more to our inner world than to the external elements with which we sometimes associate it, although it is true that achieving personal and professional goals, having the resources we need to solve situations, going out for a walk or indulging ourselves, having people around us who love us and whom we love can be part of what makes us happy, none of this guarantees that we will feel happy.

Happiness is an inner state that we can consciously
and deliberately work to feel in.

Thank you for being and being
