Everyone wants happiness, but, beware, it is because in usual cases that after happiness, disaster follows.
For example, July 4 is the Independence Day of America. Everyone celebrates crazily in that day, but unfortunately many people died on that day because they over-enjoy the happiness.
There is Carnival in Brazil each year and also many people died in that occasion due to over-excited action in dancing Samba which is their national dance. Samba is a beautiful dance, but, if this dance goes too wild, accidents will happen in the course of dancing.
Chinese also has National Day to celebrate, but Chinese characters are inclined to be conservative in celebration. They do not perform dangerous actions to celebrate and as a consequence, less accident occurred on the National Day.
We need happiness which is the goal of our life, but considering that we have only one chance to live, it should be very very cautious to take care of our life, not to lose it meaninglessly.
To protect our life, we can enjoy our happiness by way of meditation which is similar to the life of a turtle whose whole life is always in quietness and slow motion. But, turtle lives a very long life, over one hundred years in average.
