What Does Happiness Mean to You?

 Life feels a lot like going up and down stairs.


When we climb high,

there’s always a moment we must descend again.


But whether someone stands at the top

or stays near the bottom,

the truth is—

very few of us know what happiness truly means.


Because happiness doesn’t come with one clear answer.

It’s different for everyone.


For me, the answer used to be money.

I chased it for years,

thinking it would lead to joy or peace.


But the more I chased it,

the farther it seemed to drift away.

And the things I once loved

began to fade.


Over time,

I forgot what my dreams even were.

I became numb to my own emotions.


I don’t think I’m the only one.

Many of us go through life

not knowing what happiness really means,

or how to reach it.


Some people need to fill themselves to feel happy.

Others need to empty themselves to feel at peace.


And in the middle of it all,

I want to ask something simple.


When are you truly happy?

And what does happiness mean to you?


If it feels okay,

you’re welcome to share your thoughts in the comments.

We may all be walking different paths,

but maybe—we’re carrying the same questions.

A Time Stuck in Stillness

  You offered me quiet comfort. “Don’t give up,” you said. “Just hold on for one more day.” But then— you left without a word. I couldn’t believe it. Where did you go? Where must I go to see you again? I was left in a place where no path could reach you. Later, I came to understand. You carried every burden silently and left on a long journey alone. Since that day, the world has felt unfamiliar. I stopped speaking. Even the sounds of the street, the passing strangers, and the sky itself— they all felt like they turned away. But the hardest part was time itself. Time moved for everyone else, but I felt trapped within it. My memories stayed frozen, while reality flowed past me. Losing someone doesn’t just mean losing them— it means losing a part of yourself, too. I know that now. And here I am, missing a piece of me, still standing in this unmoving time. Still trying to live. Please share the painful story that’s been quietly living in your he...

To You, On the Day I Wanted to Let Go

  When is the moment a person feels the most broken? When do we feel the urge to let everything go? Is it because of poverty? Because we’ve lost our dreams? Or because we’ve lost someone we love? For me, the hardest moment is when it feels like nothing will ever change, no matter how hard I try. The common thread in all of this is despair— the kind that makes you believe that no matter how much you try, nothing will get better— not the world, not even yourself. In those moments, I’ve wanted to let go of myself. When my existence and all my efforts felt meaningless, life itself began to lose its weight. How about you? Have you ever reached the deepest corner of your thoughts, and felt the urge to let it all go? I feel it— every single moment. Along with the quiet question: “Could I ever become someone a little better?” And if, by any chance, you are—right now— crying out to the sky, “Please, just one more chance…” To you, and maybe to the person...

There Is No Darkness Without End

There was no moment of certainty. No one ever told me, “This is your path.” That morning was quiet. The station was still. And at the end of the dark tunnel, a single light was shining. Suddenly— I wanted to walk toward that light. Not because the path was clear, not because I knew the destination, but simply because I wanted to go toward it. So I walked. One step, and then another. For the first time, I thought— maybe this is the path I’m meant to take. This is only the beginning of my journey. But to you, and to everyone reading this, I wanted to say— There is no darkness without  What does your silence sound like?   Share your story in the comments below.   #SoulBridgeVoices
