Happiness
As long as you chase happiness,
you are not ready to be happy,
even if you owned everything.
As long as you lament a loss,
run after prizes in restless races,
you have not yet known peace.
But when you have moved beyond desire,
become a stranger to your goals and longings
and call no longer on happiness by name,
then your heart rises calmly
above the ebb and flow of action
and peace has reached your soul.
Enjoy the poem with beautiful music.

Who wrote the poem "Happiness"?
Hermann Hesse (July 2, 1877 – August 9, 1962)

"Happiness" explanation
Happiness is a fleeting state of mind and
not a destination nor goal in itself. You will have happiness and inner peace
only when you pursue a meaningful goal in your life and be grateful for what
you already have instead of complaining of what you don’t have.
