Contentment is the Key to Happiness

Happiness is something that we all seek. But many times we think that happiness will come only if we get more, if we get better. In fact, the truth is much simpler. The real trick to being happy is to be content with what we have.

In the picture, a little girl is lying on a swing and smiling. There is a kind of peace and satisfaction on her face. This picture teaches us that happiness does not mean getting big things, but finding joy in small things. If we always want to be like others, or want to have everything, then we will never find peace of mind.

Happiness comes only when we can accept everything we have in life with a grateful heart. A contented person always smiles because he knows that what he has is enough.

So, to find happiness, we need to look within ourselves. Only when we are content can we find true happiness in life.
