People go to faraway places for a vacation or cruise to experience nature, enjoy a trip or seek relief from daily routine. As long as you can afford such trips, there is no harm in going on a vacation to relieve yourselves of the monotony of your life. But should you limit your choices only to such expensive and rare occasions? The answer is certainly no.
Joy exists not in the things but in the seeker. For a trained mind the very process of living is a great source of enjoyment. It is immaterial whether a person is rich or poor. What is material is whether he knows how to appreciate life and beauty in his daily life and how far he can enjoy the simple pleasures of his life by becoming sensitive to the environment in which he lives. A sunset is a sunset, whether it happens in front of your house or in the Andes. What is required is a loving heart and an appreciating attitude. Even if the silence of the street, or a secluded place in your basement can bring you peace that also comes through your experience with nature.
By observing the world around you with loving attention, and appreciating the positive aspects of the most ordinary things- the beauty of a flower, the innocence of a child, the serenity of a sleeping baby, the insecurity of a flying bird, the mysterious silence of the expansive sky or a starry night- anything that makes you happy or gives you relief, you can put yourself in touch with your higher self and achieve freedom from the need to find freedom in distant places and dreamy situations.
I can say that i am someone who is easily contented under certain situations. For example, having a pleasant dream, doing my favourite things, watching a good show, or even enjoying my favourite food makes me happy. Sad to say that in our busy lives, there are many people who have forgotten what is called simple happiness.
