What Freedom and Happiness really mean...
“It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.” (Charles Spurgeon)
And remember that happiness do not come of the luxuries you have, nor the money, it comes of your positiveness and your hopes to get to you goal.
“Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness.” (William E. Gladstone)
“Happiness doesn't depend on any external conditions, it is governed by our mental attitude.” (Dale Carnegie)
So, what is freedom and happiness? Freedom is having the ability to choose. There are different kinds of freedoms, but one of the most important ones is the fundamental freedom. No one can take the fundamental freedom away from you. This freedom is your beliefs, your wishes, your thoughts. No matter the situation you are in, no one can take these things from you. It is your decision to decide how will your experiences affect you. You decide whether they will make you a better person, or a worse person. You also have to remember that to be truly free you need to have responsability. Responsability of facing the consecuences of your actions. When you start being responsible for that, you will be free. . Happiness is when you find the meaning of your life. It is not an state, it´s an activity, it´s a choice. You decide to be happy.
So, go on! Choose to be happy! Choose that your experiences will change you for good. Because you can´t always choose which experiences you´ll have, but you can always choose what you learn from them.
