Happiness is a trend

They are constantly trying to sell it to us on Instagram, beautiful girls in shiny cars, with successful husbands and children sitting on golden pots in an embrace with a volume of Hawking’s book. People quite literally HAVE TO be happy, otherwise they will not "fit" modern standards. But happiness is not about standards. it's not something monumental and thorough, it's not something you can buy or sell, it's not even something you can post to your stories... The ability to be grateful, to be able to notice the good in every day, being surprised by the colors of the horizon at sunset, the taste of your favorite coffee, the smell of a loved one. It is to love life in all its manifestations today, now, it doesnt wait for you to get rich, move, or buy something... If you don't know how to do this, then even meeting ALL the standards will not make you happy.
