Happiness
I started feeling happier when I started living the present moment, the now, not worring about the future or complaining about past.
I started feeling happier at the moment I stoped blaming others and realized that tolerance and forgiviness is better, at first, to myself.
When I learnt that being is more important than achieving, understanding is more important than being understood and loving is more important than be loved.
Stopping looking for happiness was the first step for being really happy. We don't need look for happiness, we need to be happy.

We seek happiness however we define it .In one of my friends opinion ,every thing we do is for seeking happiness in our lives.I think if I can get more information about what I want to know I will be happy.
If i can find how to sympathize with my sad or upset friends or some one who I know them I will be happy.If I can help them I will be happy.

I can't be full of hatred, Joao. I may feel angry or upset but I can't hate. I was trying to say that people are different. Some are just like kids. They forget as if nothing has happened. Others may not forget and forgive that easy because they need time to forget and overcome. I believe that those who can hardly forgive are so sensitive people. I assume that they try not to hurt others so they get upset or angry when others hurt them. Anyway, Joao, I forgive at the end but I need enough time to understand and justify not because I'm stupid but because I'm a human being.

@michelle, @Teacher Keith - Thanks for you comments :).
@arwa - Eve when you disagree, you always have a good point and help me to think (and also improve my English written). Thanks, my friend :). From my modest point of view, If we really understand others, if we put ourselves in their shoes, it will be easier to forget and forgive. When we understand others, forgetfulness and forgiveness easier and good, at first, for ourselves, for our feelings. Forgiveness is good for ours feelings, helps us more than being angry and full of hatred. Hatred hurts ourselves much more than forgiveness.Try to do it and see the results by yourself.

This is very ideal! But I'm not sure that I can be one of those who can forgive. I really need time to be able to forget first then forgive. Well I may understand others but not necessarily forgive. Not being able to forgive doesn't mean that I won't be happy and forgiveness doesn't mean happiness. Even love can make you either happy or miserable in the sense you meant. I'm not thinking of the bad part of anything. I'm not pessimist!!! But I think that you are highly optimist man and I believe that this is a great thing to have. I won't let you down, Joao, I think I need to look for reasons to be happy.
