אַשְׁרֵי הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר לֹא הָלַךְ בַּעֲצַת רְשָׁעִים וּבְדֶרֶךְ חַטָּאִים לֹא עָמָד וּבְמוֹשַׁב לֵצִים לֹא יָשָׁב:

The praises of a man are that he did not follow the counsel of the wicked, neither did he stand in the way of sinners nor sit in the company of scorners.

“Ashrei Ha Ish “,  ‘Osher’ in Hebrew means bliss or happiness.
A person seeks for happiness in his life, nonetheless, so many stumbling blocks are preventing him from getting this basic request.
At same time the life of the evil persons seems many times to be full of bliss – Why? how come the evil succeeds whilst not behaving in the path this world should be lived by?

This chapter teaches us a clearer perspective on life and what is happiness. Not the assets one posses and the figures in  his bank account, not his power, strength nor the might or authority are the ones that will gain the sought after happiness.
What is true happiness then?  It is, when you are doing good things, and then you have this feeling of wholeness within you.

A person, in which his path is of avoiding the evil while thriving towards and doing good, ‘The good’. – This is the person that will always live with bliss regardless to the hard incidents that may occur to him and the difficulties that he encounters.

Otherwise, choosing the wrong doing path, leads to lack of stability. For a long time now, we know that wealth is not a measurement of happiness or quality of life.

Contented means you’re stable. Evil is temporary and not stable. Evil is not stable, even though sometimes plated with gold!
