The Highest Happiness

On suffering and peace

By Rohitha LankaPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

''Poor people''… also suffer like poor people

Not knowing what to eat all day

''Rich people''… also suffer like rich people

Not knowing if the person they are with is trying to trick them out of money

''Bad people''… also suffer like bad people

Not knowing if someone is trying to get back

''Good people''… also suffer like good people

Not knowing if they will go to heaven if they do good

Every profession and every caste is suffering

After all, there is no one who does not suffer in this world

But those who accept suffering

And understand what it is

They are ''happy people''

''Suffering'' and ''Happiness''

They go together

Like day and night

Like black and white

Like heads and tails

The one who can let go of both suffering and happiness

They are the ones who know and reach

The happiness that is

''The highest happiness''

Born to suffer anyway

Don't tie the chains of suffering...

    If a person is immersed in what he or she is willing to do, he or she will not be aware of the hardship.

  • Fabulous 😊👏
