Happier Each Day

Many of us understand the basics of how to be

happy or how to obtain it. It will probably take the average person five times to ask him/herself the whys of happiness before determining how happy they really are. The truth is that, people tend to measure happiness according to what they have or what they think they need in order to be happy. Maybe if we go back to our childhood we could determined that we were much happier then. Nevertheless, as we grow older we wanted to become adults so desperately in order to become independent, and then for sure happiness would come in many different forms. We wanted to finish school , get a great job, get married to the perfect wife or husband, have kids and travel. All of that sounds wonderful, but somewhere alone the road the focus was lost and happiness became distant and unable to be reach.

I often compare my life with those of celebrities or very successful people and can not help wishing to be one of then for a least a day. I think about what i would do with all of their money, cars, access, and luxuries. Then, i look i what i have and think twice about it. Happiness comes in many different shapes and forms. Sometimes we just do not recognize it face. It took me many years to discovered how to be happy. I apology that i won't share it with all of you, but it is because happiness is something that each one have to find on their own. It is not tangible or measurable. It is not money or love. On the other hand, i want to tell you that i live each day happier than the last.

" LIKE A MOP TO THE BLAME BURNED BY THE FIRE, MY LOVE IS BLIND, CAN'T YOU SEE MY DESIRE?" (JANETTE JACKSON)

As i was driving to work this

morning, i heard this song on the

radio. It brought back so many

memories that i could not help to ask

myself this question,what is love? Is it desire? that

is what it seems to be among older

mature generations. I remembered when i felt in love the first time

it felt like a big stomach sensation and

the need to be with that special person.

well, now it is a whole different

feeling. It is desire. It is caring. It is

passion. Many of us had felt it at some

point in our lives. It gets to another

point in ones life where ones is contended

with the idea of love. Some how one get to the point where love resumes in a smile, a hug, a phone

call or a present.

When i was little love compiled in all the caring that my family instilled in me. Today,

i question love, but never its fire. " like a mop in the blame burn by the fire....that is the way

love goes..."

Save as Draft

Portrait of a child

Life seemed to peaceful when one was little. I remember that all my worries compiled into what the tree kings were going to bring me for Christmas. Sometimes, i used to worry about my math teacher calling on me. God, i feared him so much. It is gratifying to look at the past and being able to know that one enjoyed one's childhood. I really did enjoyed it. My best memories are of that time when three of my cousins came to live with my family. At the same time my brother, who past away, came to live with us, Carol , Setty , Pavel and my brothers Victor and Miguel. We all went to the same school. We protected and support each other so much. I remember that my brothers were always so protective of me, maybe that is why i don't like men all over me . My brothers took me to school, pick me up, and took me to the library in the afternoons.

My cousins and i did everything together. I remember getting up early to go to the bakery to buy the fresh baked bread. Miss that smell. We rode bikes, run around on the streets, played all kind of imaginable games, fought, played tricks on each other, but we knew how to have fun.

There is one thing that i love about that time in my life, and it was all those nights that my mom used to tell us stories . She is by far the best story teller i know. And, to any child that is priceless.

Men

I want to talk about women and how complicated we appealed to men. We expect men to guess what we want

or how we want it. every time we are in any relationship we want men to magically surprise us with any kind of behavior that would indicated that he is capable to think on his

own. well, i am here to tell you that men need lots and lots of encouragement. The truth is that they just don't think like we do.

Women are thoughtful beings. women remember every date, every birthday, anniversary , movie night, ect; on the other

hand, men seems to have a short term memory when it comes to female relationships. My friend A, who is married with

two beautiful children, still come home with flowers for his wife after more that 15 years of marriage. He goes out

of his way to make his beautiful wife feel special. But, i know the truth to this. My friend A only brings flower

because he had cheated on his wife so many times that he lost count. He definitely feels guilty. Many times he and i

talk about marriage in general. He said that if he leaves his wife he won't buy flower for any women ever again. My

point is that men are unpredictable. There is no science to it. Men, like women are unique beings with different desires and

and needs. It is the way we try to fulfill those desires that makes us unique, consequently, different.
