No prerequisites needed for Happiness

Happiness needs no prerequisites. 

Just see the point of it: you can be happy right now as you are.  

If you really want to be happy, then don't try to be happy. Just be happy.

Who is blocking the way?
Who is hindering you?
Who is forcing you to be unhappy?

But you say, "Right now I have to be unhappy, but tomorrow I would like to be happy. " 

Tomorrow is going to be the same. It will come as today.

This today was also tomorrow, yesterday. 

And yesterday you had said, "I am going to be happy tomorrow." 

If this is the way, if this is your logic, happiness is never going to happen. 


It is already happening.  

Just be happy. You give it a try. 

Just for 24 hours remain happy. 
Whenever you catch yourself getting unhappy again , try to be happy. 
Shake the whole body and be happy again. 

It is just a knack. 
It has nothing to do with tomorrow or the future. 

It is just a knack, an art. I have never seen any situation in which a man cannot be happy. And I have not seen any situation in which a man cannot be unhappy. 

It depends on you. It is your decision. 

Happiness comes when you remain in an unmotivated moment... a sheer delight in being.

The above is by Osho... and I found it helpful to me,and it seems to have helped me stay sane and happy during these trying times we find ourselves in.
