Have you ever wondered what real happiness is about? Have you ever stared straight into your mirror and realize that what you really crave for, the material riches you desire will give you real happiness in your heart?

Have the pursuit of wealth and fame consumed us? Have we idolized money so much that it completely blinds us from the most important things in our lives?

We must always examine ourselves What does happiness mean to you? Is happiness about driving the latest Porsche? Is it about owning a huge bungalow home? Is it about having the most beautiful diamond ring in the world? Or is it about showing the rest of the world that you are rich and successful?

Now, if you are thinking whether this is all about one those self-discovery, spiritual new age thing, well think again! This article is about the truth of real happiness

Take a moment and think If you are lying on your death bed, I can bet you that the last thing on your mind will not be about the size of your investment fund It is about the people around you and how you will be remembered!

In order to achieve real happiness, you must embark on a journey of realization After all, the best education in the world is realization, wouldn’t you agree? (You do not want to wait until a personal tragedy befalls you or your families before you realize that money isn’t everything!)

In life, we have witnessed time and time again that money cannot buy all the happiness in the world – especially when a person depends on money as a crutch, they will buy friendship, only to get a cheap imitation

People long for the genuine goods They wonder where all their friends are and why their life is in such a mess – all because they do not know how to get along with people or to keep their friends long enough to build long lasting relationships

Make no mistake about it The people around us, our friends and relatives are actually the most important people that we must keep close to our hearts (not money or fame) That is why it is very important to make friends and do whatever it takes to keep them Do not become complacent just because you are much more successful compared to your beer drinking childhood friend The memories you have with your friends are things that you must treasure

So do not take your friends for granted If you have wronged people in the past, take effort to make amends and you will have an easy conscience and a better life in the future
