  Eternal Happiness

           We have been seeing regarding Christianity all through this paper but the question as to why all this always remains. The question is answered in this point by Kierkegaard. He says that when reveal our wishes to somebody he understands us because in it not only our soul is revealed  but also he sees us because our wishes betray us to him. Therefore someone has said that wishing is a foolish art because we compare one who has the habit of wishing with the one resorted to the beggars staff through laziness. Both of them live on charity.
          However, wishing also displays an attractive side.  All of our childhood goes on in wishing which adds meaning to our life. Sometimes there were stories in which men and women were granted satisfaction by three wishes. One of them is eternal happiness. When he had assured eternal happiness for himself then he would wish for other things for the sake fun. In the midst of life’s seriousness we require fun.
       Kierkegaard says that the men of this age have learned how to work their wish so that they can divorce themselves from the habit of wishing. It is good if we want to get away from the deceitfulness of wishing but the eternal happiness is not what men consider to be frivolous.

    Eternal happiness is not acquired on the earth by involving ourselves with the things like the concern for the future or is achieved by violence rather doing the things which are impossible, to seek the kingdom of god here on earth.
