“Being happy is to recognize that it is worthwhile to live, despite all the

challenges, misunderstandings and times of crises.”

“... to thank God every morning for the miracle of life.”

We are currently prohibited from going outside our houses, so we frequently overthink since
we aren’t able to meet some of our friends and our loved ones. There are days that we do not
have someone to talk to or to rely on so we have no choice to understand each other because
of our different errands in life. How sad that a lot of people nowadays think and consider their
lives as worthless. They are able to think that they don’t want to live anymore whenever they
feel so down because of our different problems they are facing. We also tend to stop thinking
about the importance of our lives just because of the struggles we face everyday.

The whole essay entitled “Being Happy” is a beautiful inspiration for all of us who are able to
read it. If we just understand and appreciate the essay wholeheartedly, I am definitely sure that
we can grasp the message of it. The first sentence above is a message I want to emphasize not
only for myself but also for us that being happy is when we recognize that our life is worth living
for, despite those variety of problems we face everyday. The phrase “to thank God every
morning for the miracle of life.” is the one who strikes me the most, since some of us tend to
forget to thank God for our lives. I know that my life is just borrowed from God and because of
His will I am able to do things right now and wake up everyday.
