An Eastern Approach to Happiness

Life is concise, each and every day is significant. Every moment wasted is detrimental to the health of one's self. The inner voice is always beckoning to be heard yet is often ignored. Simply listening to the pleas of the body can help attain fulfillment and progress towards outwardly happiness and health. It is individuals who ignore the pleas that become unhappy. Achieving satisfaction with one's self is never easy and may require sacrifices. This is why a man who possesses vast amounts of wealth can be extremely unhappy. In Western cultures superficial materials dominant decisions in life. Many aspire to obtain these superficial objects and sacrifice morality to complete these goals.
The destruction of one's self in the process of obtaining superficial items results in extreme unhappiness. Ideally, a balance should exist between superficial materialistic items and the desires of one's self. This amounts to the completion of both goals internally and externally.
