In Humility,Happiness and Contentment

Life is too short, that’s why people around us usually want to live their life to the fullest, both young and old, they want everything happens in just a click of a second, and that’s it.

But, do we consider God in our daily living?

Every aspect of our lives, we resulted to find happiness, enjoyment,  contentment, and  success in every field we wanted, no matter how it is, because we want it, by hook or by crook, we will find ways just to have it. Every time we wake up, we pray that whatever happens today, it must be according to our will, it must always be nice and makes us happy. But, there are few suggestions on how can we find happiness, in our very little way.

Happiness could be found in a very simple manner, we just need to be contented, be humble and be simple as I have stated.

Being contented on whatever you have right now is accepting the fact that no matter how small or big you have we should be thankful to God for He gave us enough to be used and spend our life together with our loved one such as families and friends. On the aspect of humility, according to Father Nicolas Schwizer “it   contains two life sentiments which are apparently in opposition: smallness and greatness. Whoever only experiences his own smallness will in the long run fall into an inferiority complex. On the contrary, whoever only experiences his owns greatness will become proud and presumptuous. In Mary, the human being par excellence, there is the perfect equilibrium: within herself she feels small, but at the same time, she feels loved and exalted by God.” So, we should be humble and not proud. Be simple, simplicity is next to being humble. We should be simple, in every field, and everything will fall in due time, you will be contented. You won’t clamor for the things that you don’t have, instead, you just be thankful later, because though you don’t have much at least, you have even a little.

In short, I should be telling it into myself. Even if I don’t have much, I should be thankful that I am still alive and God loves me for even though, I am not contented still He let me feels that I am not forsaken.
