The Paradoxes of Our Lives - Happiness Comes When You Accept The Other

Happiness is easier found when you accept sadness. If we accept that life is hard, then all the moments that are not hard appear relatively good. That could lead to a happy state of mind.

On the other hand if we are constantly seeking happiness then perhaps we could never find happiness because everything looks like a let down. We would be sad at not finding 'enough' happiness.

To be happy then, accept the sadness, the dullness, the boredom, the lack as the norm. Then everything seems great in comparison.
