Why am I so happy ?

We are all happy when we get some gift or achieve success or some one passes a well meant compliment or ....but today I read a statement -that one should try to be happy without reason and learn to love without reason and also to try not to be sad inspite of a reason and hate no one without a reason or better still hate none at all.And this made me think if all this was possible at all?It is very humane to rejoice at any achievement, that too well deserved.for example your kids achieve scholastic excellence and you get a long expected promotion.Would you just take it as part of life and not be happy ? It means just the opposite ,the statement means that one should rejoice,celebrate all happenings in life as counting blessings are necessary.Enjoy that you are able to see,smell, walk,talk,smile and smile more.It is the best way to live,make it a point to praise many people daily if not at least a person but be honest about it.Let us remind ourselves to be happy without a reason and also to hate no one with or without reason as it can harm us more than the person we hate.
