Happy by Pharrel Williams

This song always manages me to dance,
or at the very least, boost my mood on doing anything
The lyric is great, the beat is even better!
I think whoever arranges the music is really smart.
Hearing this song reminds me that I have been more cheerful and happier than I was last year
Apparently, writing is a good treatment for me.
And not just writing, but to be more specific,
writing things make me happy or thankful.
It was pretty much difficult at start
since I was depressed and can not think anything else but
negative and sad thoughts.
I even had to force myself to find excuses or things that
actually not making me that happy and to write those things as happy things like seeing it as blessing in disguise
Looking back, happiness occurs everyday,
it is the matter of realizing and acknowledging it.
Now I believe the secret to be happy is to be content
and to be content is to realize there is always things to be grateful of.
even the smallest or simplest thing
such as sleeping or even breathing.

The Reason
I was surfing on internet to search for some research materials while streaming on one of national news channel. They were talking about what is happiness and what can we do to make ourselves still happy during stressful events.
One of the callers said his job was actually considered as a highly respected job, people acknowledged his achievements. However, sometimes he did not enjoy his job anymore since he was often trapped in stressful condition because he could not reach his own expectation. People said he aimed to high. Yet, he thought that he has to aim high in order to make himself move forward. He asked what he should do? He also wanted to be content and happy with his job now, but he did not want to loose his target that has made him move forward until now?
The guest speaker answer really hit me.
He said the one thing you have to realize is what is your reason in doing your job?
in aiming high target?
what will you gain if you have your achievements?
will it make you happy?
will it make more people happy?
sometimes people are so busy in aiming high things without knowing
what is the meaning of reaching it.
when people forget about it, people will loose the meaning of his job
and eventually they might become not enjoying what they do anymore
thus feel unsatisfied, and of course
not happy with themselves
