Loco outdated dream, desire of the soul, search inside or just an illusion ... what is happiness?
E s much has been said and written about happiness ... and no wonder because they achieve seems to be part of our essence as human beings. But while everyone wants to be happy, there is no unambiguous concept of happiness or definitive.
Throughout the history of thought, Eastern and Western philosophers have dwelt upon the idea of \u200b\u200bhappiness and left us a legacy of exquisite wisdom, if only obliquely, worth revisiting.
From Eastern philosophy, Buddhism holds that to achieve happiness, man must become independent as soon as possible of the subject. According to this view the problem lie in the desire, unable to be eternally satisfied, causes us pain. Suppressing the desire, you end the pain.

every philosophical school in the West raised its own concept of happiness, which is broadly recognized as something more mundane: from Thales of Miletus to the humanist idea of \u200b\u200bhappiness has been linked to a state of satisfaction due to their own situation in the world and the abundance of material and spiritual.
Plato and Aristotle were the first to link the state of satisfaction with virtue and truth. San Augustine recommended around the inner man as a way of happiness that is in fact a reformulation of what his teacher sentenced Seneca: Know thyself.
What happened next, if we were going so well ...?
seems that among the most interesting modern philosophers, the romantic spirit ensued that exalted state of pain and suffering for their intensity and creative fertility. To this was added the rise of rationalism and it is believed that people like Descartes look with some contempt the question of happiness, which considered the heritage of common men.
And so it was that the issue was in the hands of freethinkers who were in charge of setting up a culture to justify the market and its laws.
Then came the great confusion that was in operation for reduction: happiness fell to success, success will be identified with pleasure, the pleasure became well-being and welfare, no more nor less than consumption capacity.
suspiciously light, say Calamaro. But no, the truth is that one does not even suspect, head to toe stuck in the mad rush that no one knows exactly where it leads. Or maybe, from the intellectual one realizes that things may not be as linear and ruthless (happiness only for those who can afford it) but the message filters through the pores and becomes flesh and even suspect that something -anda-fail-in-the-system the damage is done: we are unhappy about not fitting in, not to do, for not complying with what is supposed to meet specified.

Until the arrival of the click.
That is not a once and for all, what we're going to cheat ...
But it happens that after a certain time we sense that happiness is a possible destination and it has to do with what we are, with what we deeply rooted in the bottom of the heart, let us flow and flourish, with enhance strengths and strengthen weaknesses ...
understand at once, but we always knew, that first of all need to give and receive from our people who just love miracle mud becomes that no one is richer than who cherishes affection.
Gradually we realize that happiness is not a lottery or a collection of beautiful moments that matter nor fleeting, elusive, almost insubstantial that may one day reach. We understood that happiness is a daily achievement, something that happens here and now no matter how photogenic is the time in which we live.
Sometimes the click comes at a difficult time in those days that no one would take a photo for the album. And sometimes, as in my case, it has to do with the unique experience of a personal encounter with God.

then began to accept that we can not alone. We understand that happiness itself is unavoidably linked to the happiness of others, of loved ones and those to whom history linked to our lives.
And after some time of pondering these issues is an understanding that is necessary unearth the talents and make them fruitful, we must work much happiness and comfort that have nothing in common but the possibility of an obvious rhyme and that heaven is for those who dare to build it here in the land.
As part of that process of discovery and confirmation was that it became necessary to open this space. And after a long internal struggle and to overcome laziness, fear and prejudice (the ghost of Cohelo, perhaps?), Here I am.

At first because I have a calling of messenger and courier work to publicize the good news, but nobody asks for it. And because so enormous disadvantage to me, happiness is also seeking to put life into words.
Or put another way: I can only be completely happy if I write it.
