There is a simple way to achieve happiness. The means is to simply be happy. You are most likely wondering right now, how do I get to be happy?” “Things just don’t work like that, it doesn’t take into consideration the times that I am wretchedly unhappy because of problems or mishaps that arise in my day to day life, not to mention the tragedies.” At this stage I have to halt and meditate. Meditation can be performed in many different ways, just find the one that works best for your purposes.
