Does everything brings you pain or you see everything to be painful!

You do not need to be in the same status or circumstances over time to maintain your joy. You maintain your joy by adjusting your view of your changing status/circumstances over time.

Happiness is everywhere at any time, but it appears to be rare because the eye to see it is rare. The world is full of so many people, things and situations to making us happy at some point in time irrespective of the fact that there are issues that may have the tendency to weigh us down.

As the saying goes " amidst every challenges lie opportunities", it is crystal clear that even in the worst of situations there is something that could make us feel better if only our eye has the ability to see it.

The eye that you use to view determines what you will see; a microscopic eye sees microscopic objects; objects that can't be seen by the ordinary eye. A telescopic eye sees a telescopic objects-objects that are hundreds of miles away. An imaginative eye sees an imaginary objects. What is common about all these objects that could only be seen by one set of vision aid is that they are all in the same 'environment' which is the universe but they can only be seen when you adjust your vision (eye) with a particular aid which could be a telescope, microscope, mind's eye etc.

If these beautiful scenery which could be attractive to either the heart or the mind are all present in the same environment ( environment full of dangers and other disgusting issues), but could only be seen by an adjusted eye, this clearly shows that no matter the type of situation we may find ourselves, if only we could find a way to adjust our 'eyes' we would probably be able to see something that could be appealing, appreciable, and entertaining which could calm us down and invigorate our spirit.

Happiness or joy could tend to be rare or farfetched not because they are scarce or absent but simply because everyone of us most likely focuses our minds on how to get and enjoy what we think could make us happy rather than how we could make ourselves happy if we don't get what we want that could make us happy or otherwise lose it.

A man who finds a way to be happy even when he hasn't earned what he wants will be happy when he didn't find it or lose what he had.

A man who could always manage to adjust his view to see the good or something better in any situation would hardly be devastated by any situation.

It is common to think that the author may not have been deeply touched that is why he could write such a piece, but it is very clear that even if you may have been deeply touched by a situation that the author may not have experienced, the fact that you are alive shows that there was a way out in that situation. You possibly didn't realise that way earlier or you realized it at an earlier stage but couldn't convince yourself to accept it at first. If perhaps you were able to adjust your eyes to see that way-out earlier and accept it you possibly wouldn't have been touched as you acclaimed.

If a child could suffer something which a parent can easily go through, it doesn't necessarily means the parents are immune to it; if a wife could be touched by something which a husband can accept easily, it is not as though the husband is stronger; if a soldier can go through something which could be deadly to a civilian, it doesn't mean that the soldier is an alien but the simple and underlying advantage is that those apparent heroes have been able to adjust their eyes so as to see something appealing and appreciable in those apparently devastating situations.

If we have disabled people who are happy, it simply tells you that if you were once not disabled and get involved in a situation that leaves you the only option of disability, it may sound like the end of the world. If it appears like that to you, could you adjust your view to see what someone in that situation sees that makes him happy and accept it if at all it's the only option you have?

There are many child less women in the world who may be happier than some women with children, if you're about passing fertility age, has your mind tells you that you have lost everything? Have you accepted that being without a child means you have no reason to continue existing? If there are women without children that are happier, have you adjusted your eye to seeing the opportunity that lies in the challenge of living without a child?

There are women without husband who are happy, if you think you are advancing in age without a husband; have you accepted that being without a husband means you have no reason to exist? Or you could adjust your eye to see the opportunity that lies in the challenge of living without a husband?

It is easier to be devastated by a situation than to see and accept the good in it. That is one of the reasons why unhappiness tends to overwhelm the world. No matter how bad or heart rendering our situations might be, if we give ourselves a minute to adjust our view of the issue, it is very likely that we might see something that could calm us down.

Finally, always aim at finding ways to be happy in any situation rather focusing on what you want to be happy. Always try to see how an apparent devastating situation could build you up rather than tear you apart.

If you could follow these points, it is very likely that you could be able to see many sources and situations to be happy with in this troubled world than the world becomes a place that doesn't care for humanity.
