Introduction: Is it really ok to be happy?

BEING HUMAN MEANS A SIMPLE LIFE WITH GOOD FAITH AND ACTION

Introduction: Is it really ok
to be happy?


If this seems like a silly question, you’re ahead
of the game, because a lot of people think
happiness is a sign of foolishness, laziness, or
selfishness. Here are some misconceptions that
I’ve heard:
 Happiness is just plastering over reality with
smiley faces and deluding yourself into
believing everything is ok. You waste time
and energy telling yourself stupid, untrue
affirmations and believing in nonsense. I’ll
take truth over happiness, thank you.

 Happy people are gullible suckers who just
haven’t grown up yet.
Good people work hard—they don’t have
time to be happy.
 We’re not meant to be happy in this life.
The more we suffer and struggle here, the
more we’ll be rewarded in heaven.
