"it is very simple to be happy, but it is very difficult to be simple". a speech or essay about it.

it is very simple to be happy, but it is very difficult to be simple". This is a quote written by Rabindra math Tagore.

Most us have been taught we need to achieve certain things in order to have an identity, get status, be a certain way to reach a certain goal.

Sometimes we settle for things that don’t make us happy, whether out of habit, indecisiveness or fear. Our hearts rusts up and our mind get closed in by the barbed wire of our comfort zone.

Maybe we’re forgetting that being happy can be very easy; the hard thing is discerning what is important, what is fills us up and gives magic to our days. And then fighting for it. Like they say, “it’s so simple to be happy but so difficult to be simple.” A short phrase but a profound truth. To understand it, let’s think about something for a moment. Happiness is like a scam. The true lie is that we believe we can “achieve” it. Because whoever insists on trying to find it will just fail over and over again
