Life

We are often taught that the circumstances that we face in life are results of our past karma. This theory may be correct or it may be incorrect. The fact is, we cannot change our past karma's. What we can do is face these circumstances, whether good or bad, with the most suitable response. It is not the cirumstances that we face in life but the attitude with which we live our life determines our happiness and sorrow. Daily, we come accross people who are less priviledged than us, in terms of money, education etc., but are more happier. The reason is two fold:

1) Positive attitude towards life

2) Lesser fear

People who are happier in life are also the ones who complaint lesser in similar conditions vis a vis an unhappy person. That is to say, if two people face similar bad circumstances, the one who complaints lesser is more likely to be happier in life than the one who complaints more. So, it is not the circumstance but our response/impact on our mind which makes us happier.
