RE: Is Life Really Better When We Are Happy-Go-Lucky, Don't Worry and Be Happy?
In Russian "happiness" and "luck" have different roots.
BY the way, it's interesting to know that if we look at the etimology of the word "happiness" in our language, it appears it has roots in the word "NOW"
happiness is CЧАcтьЕ,
now - CEйЧАС
it means much and makes us think about what it means to be happy.
Just catch the moment NOW and feel it, find smth great in it (in every monent there is smth great!), and enjoy
life is NOW, happiness is NOW as well.
it's wise, how do you think?
Now can keep you stuck in just the moment, and can blind or ignore the future that we are always heading towards. That's why "happy-go-lucky" = cheerfully unconcerned about the future. THe focus is now, and not where we are walking. If we want to know where we are going in life, we have to look to the future, look ahead, to see the path we are on.
Don't ignore the future, just live life NOW, not tomorrow.
You can't know for sure where your current steps will lead you to, any new decision can change yout life and turn it upside down.
All forecasts for future are fakes because life has endless number of possible variants and roads, and every day you can change and choose another way dependion on your decisions, thoughts and attitude to yourself and your future.
Don't you think future can be different?
