Power, grandeur, and glory are all fleeting, elusive stuff.

These are certainly not the key to our eternal


happiness, because there would be limitations to our actions, and if we break this limitation, it would
result to consequences. We are all hoping to clear ourselves up, and sometimes, at the detriment of
others, we do so. We are left craving more until we gain satisfaction from satisfying a desire, and bound
to this never-ending cycle. Instead, we must think within our heart and our soul, that happiness resides.
What we seek might be completely devastating for us. What we must really do is to acknowledge the
true meaning of happiness. It is now how much we have, but how much we enjoy that makes happiness.

order to be free. Freedom depends on how we define it or perceive it; this includes differences in
genetic defects. If a person is naturally born blind, he/she cannot ultimately complain about it, but
rather he/she slowly accepts it and learn to find freedom with the defects he/she have, because it’s
his/her fate. Genetic
