'Happiness comes from within' is a story often told to give the victim of blues a sedation pill, that makes him forget why he was sad in the first place. Another time, another place he will make sure his inside is happy. It happens. But not because he told himself he will be happy despite all odds, but it happened because others were happy with him.
"I believe we place our happiness in other peoples hands" -Affirmation
Hence any reason for feeling happy besides this is an illusion. Is it a state of mind? a temporary psychological state? No! its REAL. It may be temporory but it is defintely not a persons intellectual process. It is simple. Others are happy with you and so you are happy with the others.Each one of us in the world know who the other is. When happiness is not acheived through others you wish to live for and by yourself only. End of story.
