In Seventh Heaven

Happiness. Something all humans wish to achieve, without knowing the how.

When Xenophon was asked about his dead son, he answered,

"I knew my son was a mortal."

While to some people this can be perceived as cold, Xenophon here taught us a very important lesson.

The question as to how to be happy was answered years ago. To reach happiness, one must to reach virtue. The meddling, arrogance and ungratefulness that the world contains is all a result of ignorance; people who have yet to accept life as it is.

When you accept the beauty of good and the ugliness of evil, only then may you reach virtue.

Living in fear, hate, anger is a set back to life. In order to live life to the fullest, one must accept his fate. One must not fear the coming. One must tolerate the nature that sometimes things are out of his control. And when one finally comes to peace with it, only then may he feel true relief.

When one reaches happiness, they reach seventh heaven.

"He who has a why to live can bear almost any how." -Friedrich Nietzsche
