How do you find happiness?
It sounds like a big question, right? But honestly, it’s not that deep. At least, not for me. I don’t believe happiness is some huge moment or big achievement. I think happiness lives in the small stuff — the everyday things we often ignore.
Over time, I’ve trained myself to notice those tiny sparks. Like smiling at strangers. Wishing my colleagues a cheerful “Good morning” every single day. Gifting something thoughtful to maa and papa just to see their eyes light up. Buying myself a pair of cute jutties, a new bag I didn’t really “need” but absolutely loved, or those jumkas that instantly lift my mood — because why not? I deserve little celebrations too.
Even making food for myself has become a form of self-love, not just a routine. I light a candle, put on music, and actually enjoy the process. These aren’t big things, but they add up. They make me feel more connected to myself.
And to be honest, it wasn’t always like this. There was a time when I hated everything around me. I felt tired, bitter, and disconnected. But life slowly turned around — not in one night, but step by step. I started noticing the beauty, the calm, the joy. I learned how to hold space for the little things. And through that, I learned a lot about myself too.
Now, I don’t chase big happiness. I find it in the details — in smiles, gestures, little gifts, good vibes, quiet mornings.
You should do this for yourself too. Really. Give yourself that kindness, that softness, that care. I promise — it won’t happen overnight, but one day, you’ll look back and realize: you started falling in love with life again. And more importantly, with yourself.
