For happiness. What do you need for absolute happiness?! If you can answer this question, perhaps you can only feel sorry for yourself. Absolute happiness is on the way to it! Overcoming difficulties, hardships and pain, we get a dose of endorphins, the release into the bloodstream of something that makes us lighter, kinder, and our eyes cleaner and brighter.
Having the necessary resource, we are more likely to look further, to more where we lack what we need. This is a healthy ambition and desire. Therefore, resource is a convention and a circumstance. The willingness to decide, give and work for the resource is the real “much”. If losing what you already have for any length of time is one thing. If losing what is to be gained after time and labor - totally different. When you're willing to accept the possibility of loss by taking a step toward it, that kind of determination has a real high price.
What do you need for a day of happiness? Tell me your plans for tomorrow when you have everything on your wish list! Tomorrow. For real! Can you hold that emotion, that feeling inside you? For how long? Will you never want anything else? Desires scale in a dimensional and qualitative relationship. This is, alas, the way it always is. There is no one specific thing that will give you true happiness. Or is there?
Yes! And it's not a list, it's not your “Wish List” on your phone. It's a person who is there for you. With whom solving the most frustrating and difficult problems is a pleasure! With whom you can make mistakes while laughing at the consequences of those mistakes. With whom you are anchored and whatever happens, rolling back to the very beginning, from scratch, into the void - he is still there and gives a smile looking into your eyes. It takes two to be happy, for everything else - time and desire. There's no such thing as impossible. Tell me, what do you need to be happy?!
