What is the relationship between and happiness?

           

           What has money got to do with the state of being happy? What does it mean to be happy in the first place?

Ok guys; let me first break it down from the scientific perspective. Being happy is a general feeling due to a wide variety of hormones produced in the body (mostly in the brain). Therefore pleasure from making love or even taking drugs gives that same feeling of happiness. This is the reason why so many people turn to these sources of happiness. But if you have noticed these sources of joy and pleasure (especially taking drugs) do cost a lot of money. The time we’re living in particular is ruled by money .I believe that people created money for their use but these days, things have turned around. We may ask what is so wrong about taking drugs or making too much love (specifically outside marriage). For me there are two simple but critical points to rule them out. Sustainability and what will they bring- regret or accomplishment.

Sustainability

If we take drugs for example, we’ll feel a rush that makes us so happy (A high). But the big problem is what is going to follow – Depression and a long one too compared to normal depression. In fact, some drugs give us a high that is so dangerous that many kill themselves or become mentally ill. Even if they survive the high, the depression that is going to follow is often unbearable.

Making love is the natural way to produce an offspring. One thing that it differs from other criteria of living organisms is that it gives a feeling of pleasure so that the species continue to thrive. But as far as we know, only Humans and Dolphins make love for entertainment. I don’t know about you but I believe that sex was created for reproduction purpose. Many Movies and Ads of our time are pretty much sexual which have proved to decrease one’s satisfaction of their marriage or if the individual is not married, it’ll make that person look for his/her mate from the sexual perspective. Nowadays less and less people are looking for partners that share with them some common ideology or have something in common.  Fashion and many music are pretty much designed to fit with people’s hunger for sexual experiences. This mainly leads to having a relationship before marriage (which is usually against the norm of most societies around the world). This will eventually lead to the collapse of the societal norms (which is definitely not a good thing!)

Regret or accomplishment

What matters most to many however is if you’ll regret it or not later on. Just imagine yourself becoming an addict of some drug or/and alcohol and cheating on your wife or husband all your life. When you’re at the end of your life, how would you feel? Horrible? I am sure words won’t be able to describe that feeling for sure.

So to round up everything, I say we should reduce this rush for the never ending thirst of money which we believe that it’ll get us out of all the miseries we might be experiencing right now through fame, wealth, good looking people running after us, drugs (actually come last when none of our methods work). After all rather than telling everyone to quit immediately it’s best to allow them stop doing it through time. Bringing moderate changes is always better than radical changes. Though it’s useful and even rewarding to earn money we should be the ones that use it in the proper way, not let it use us.
