Happiness is Not Restricted to Material Things
People need to eat every day to supply their bodies with energy and to keep themselves healthy. If they stop eating for a period of time, diseases will sneak up upon them and overtake them, and perhaps even kill them. Similarly, people also need food of another kind, food for the spirit and heart.
It is unfortunate that while people are careful never to forget to feed their bodies, they do not show the same concern for the health of their souls and hearts.
The heart needs food as the body does. The diseases of the body and the debilitating effects they have are not more dangerous than the diseases of the heart and soul.
Happiness is a feeling that resides in the heart. It is characterized by peace of mind, tranquility, a sense of well-being, and a relaxed disposition. It comes as a result of proper behavior, both inward and outward, and is inspired by strong faith.
Faith is not only a means to attain happiness; it is also a means to ward off the things that prevent happiness.
So keep our faith :))

hello Bima,
first of all, thank you very much for adding me to your favourites, it's always a thrill to learn somebody likes what I do :)
second, about the photo - excellent illustration to your note, the kids do seem happy and unburdened with the thoughts that they might not have enough. I like a lot the beautiful morning light, and how you have composed the photo with strong horizontal lines. but it seems that the heavy compression (or is this a tight crop of a larger photo?) has damaged the quality a bit, with the camera and lens that you have, the image should be crystal clear and razor sharp. as I said, it might be the result of the compression. other than that, very well seen and presented.
regards,
Kristine
Hi Bima,
Great to see those boys playing on water. Excellent warm morning sun. Background give idea of the neigbourhood with harbour operations. I like the contrast between warm brown sunny tones and cool looking sea and sky. Exposure maybe a bit darkish.
