Heaven is in your midst – in front of you, behind you and all around you – and you are looking for it. Heaven is a state of mind!
You can go around the world looking for heaven and never find it. Or you can look within and there it is!
Happiness is no different — it is a state of mind. Yes, there are many people in the world who are deprived of the basic necessities and many who are going through horrible suffering and tragedy. For them, it is very hard to think of heaven or happiness. However, the irony is that some of these people seem happier than those who have plenty.
Happiness is not a set of circumstances, it is a state of mind and an attitude.
