Time to be happy

A few days back I got a mail from my friend which was about happiness. It was actually conveying a message that happiness is a voyage not a destination. We always look for happiness in things far away from us, but in this race we cant see happiness surrounding us. Right from our childhood we convince ourselves that life will be better once we grow up. We get into a good college from school. Then again we get frustrated to get good jobs, getting that we again get frustrated to perform better, to have a car, to have vacations etc. etc. This way we keep on dragging our happiness to future and our present remain devoid of it. So instead of lingering on our time to get happy, we should understand that there is no time to be happy than right now. If not now then when?
Whenever we feel that real life is about to start, we find some obstacle on the way, an ordeal to get through, some work to be finished, some time to be given, some bill to be paid. Then life would start.....But finally we need to understand that these obstacles are the life. And there is no road to happiness but happiness is the road. So enjoy every moment and stop waiting before deciding to be happy.... :)
