Imagine, what if ultimate peace was in the materialistic things like money, fame, possessions etc, which everyone might not find easy to achieve? What if the real pleasures in life were in all the wrong things we are chasing now even when we know clearly it's the wrong place we are chasing. If it was so, wouldn't peace and pleasure be only accessible to the rich and powerful in the society? But is it so? Well, it's quiet the opposite right. You may find a rich and powerful man weeping alone in his huge bungalow because he considers his life worthless, even when he has every material possession he could ever dream of. While you may see a poor man happily spending his evening with his family grateful for the day's meals and the happiness on his children's face. We chase for peace and happiness in all the wrong places. While it is right here, within us, so close to us. Happiness is not definitely having the best jobs, cars, houses or huge savings in the bank. All those are truly transient. Finding happiness is not a one day process. Happiness is a combination of many other emotions, like contentment, acceptance, forgiveness, trust, reliance, gratefulness, and many more such things which can never be given a price. The more we keep searching for happiness in the wrong things, the more the right things slip away from our hands. We don't realize this, until we slowly start losing those things that we took for granted. #writingthoughtsaway #tuesdayreflections #mbdailyposts #creativemuslimwomen #muslimahblogger #igwriters #instawriters #writerscommunity #simplethingsinlife #transientlife #temporarylife #strangerinthisworld #dunya #deenoverdunya #muslimahwriter #muslimahonpurpose https://www.instagram.com/p/CEmCOxTDvcl/?igshid=16y283pgz8zfm
