“It is not how much we have,” says Charles Spurgeon, “but how much we enjoy it, that makes happiness.” I initially disagreed with this statement. I believed that success reflected the amount of money and fame someone had. But after thinking about this saying for a while, I discovered that I was completely wrong. In his article “When Everything You Always Wanted Wasn't Enough,” author Harold Kushner illustrates the idea that happiness is not something tangible because it cannot be measured by a person's achievements. The article also states that society's approach towards the pursuit of happiness will not satisfy them in the long run. Kushner concludes that being happy can only be achieved by living a meaningful life. I absolutely agree with the author's statement. Although the meaning of happiness always depends on certain morals and understandings, the idea of ​​happiness is universal. Giving back to others, working hard, and striving for a persistent life exemplifies the true idea of ​​happiness. From the experience of giving back to the community in The Happiest Refugee and through my own personal experiences, it is recognized that happiness is a byproduct, not a primary goal. For one thing, giving back to others is an area where the universal concept of happiness is the end result. In his work, Kushner states that “no matter how hard we work to succeed, success will not satisfy us.” I absolutely agree with this statement. Society tends to worry about themselves and their busy lives. They often fail to realize that success does not equate to the amount of happiness someone achieves. Furthermore, happiness is something elusive and indefinable. If people focused on the big picture instead of themselves throughout… the center of the card… the principle. What is “happiness”? Happiness is something that is not measurable. The constant search for happiness is like an eternal game of hide and seek. We may actually find happiness at some point in life. But this happiness decides to hide in another place so he can look for it once again. Don't be afraid to find what makes you truly ecstatic in life, no matter what others think. Although the meaning of happiness always depends on standards and values, the concept of happiness is universal. Giving back to others, working hard, and motivating yourself to live a meaningful life accurately explains happiness. In the long term, life is about discovering irreplaceable, rewarding and eternal happiness. After all, it is clearly up to us to choose what makes us truly happy.”
