What is the meaning of your “Happiness”?

What is the meaning of your “Happiness”?
Be a Millionaire?
Be a Superstar?
Be a Famous person?
Be an Influencer?
To me, none of the above.
My Happiness is just that I can do what I want, whenever I'd like to do.
Just only I can sleep where I want, whenever I'd love to sleep.
That is enough! That is my Happiness!
I was a white collar working for a big international company
and I was happy every month end when I received my paycheck.
I thought that was my Happiness.
However, after I had worked for a long time,
a question popped up in my head, “was this my true Happiness?”.
The answer was NO! So I decided to resign and explore my true happiness.
As I know that I love travelling and enjoy flexible hours,
I pursued my certificate as a tour guide and I enjoyed it.


It might not be as secured as full-time employment,
but we cannot eat a cake and have it too.
This is a proverb meaning "you cannot have it both ways"
or "you cannot have the best of both worlds"
Everything in life is a trade off.

How about you? What is your true Happiness?
What is the definition of it and have you found it already?

Have you ever heard a quote saying  "Good things come to those who wait"? The quote is absolutely true  only when  you are not just sitting still,  being passive  and waiting for your dreams to become true. Instead, you need to grab the chance,  do it now and work towards the end. Carpe Diem (/Car-Pae-Diem/) is a Latin phrase used to encourage  someone to make the most of the present, and put very little trust in the future, because nothing is certain and tomorrow may never come. I always wanted to move out of Thailand when I was young. The two choices in my mind at many times were Singapore and the States. I kept the thought with me and never really moved out because I was afraid that it would not be as good as I wished. I had a fear of failure and worried that  I had to come back and restart everything again. Until the day my mom said if I should go and try to find a job in the States, I had so many conflicts in my thought at that time  bu...

We have 28,810 days to live

You are having less and less time every single day. You will not know when your last day will be. Life expectancy in the States is approximately at 78.93 years.* That means you have 28,810 days in average for your lifetime. They say each new day is a new opportunity, but don't wait until tomorrow as it is not a promise. You may not have the full 28,810 chances in your life pocket. No one knows if today will be their last day or not. It's better to make the most of the present. Where do you stand on your bell curve life graph? Are you in the first stage where the graph is still going up? The middle stage where the graph is pretty stable? Or in the last stage where everything slows down for you? Determine yourself so you see how many chances in life you still have left. If it's about your goal/dream, wake up and pursue it. If it's about your family/people, make up with them  before it's too late or they leave you. If it's about your anger/boredom/tiredness, take i...
