Life…. A fact which everyone lives….. Sometimes even we don’t know where we are heading for but still we all are living…..
Don’t know we are living for ourselves or we are living for our loved ones…. But still we are living….. Don’t know other loves you or not, but still we are living……. What we will get out of our life … this is a blank question for everybody but still we are living…. I think the great word is HOPE not living a life as such ….as we hope and then live and then again hope and then live and one day we got confused that we hope more or we live more… don’t know still confused…..
If I recollect my memory and check that till today, how much time I spent as a happy person and how much life I spent in cursing myself and others for my failures, then I found that the ratio is very amazing…. I think 5% of my total life I spent till yet was consider as the happy one and 5% of life was the unhappy one… what about 90% of my life I spent till yet….. What I was doing during that time…. . I think I was doing something so that I will be happy rest of life…. By purchasing car, big house… list is too big…. But still many times my doings did not go with me and I ended up in sorrow…… really it sucks that just to get materialistic happiness I spend 90% of my life… that’s really bad……. So what is true happiness…..? hmmm… don’t know… what I wanted to be… hmmmm…. I want that after 10 years I should be at very good position … which position…. Hmmm… may be director or so in a company ….. What u will get at that point……? Which will make u happy…….. hmmmm…. Even after playing this role really my life will change?.... don’t know… then what about the CEO post….. still don’t know… so it means I am just running here and there and looking for the excuses that if I will get that position, I will be happy……. Many people think that if they become bill gates or Mukesh Ambani, then they will become happy… does it really so?...
I think these roles will only satisfy once internal ego which nobody accepted.. ..me too….. I don’t know whether I am an egoist or egotist but I accept that I have some part of either of two…… don’t know what I will do which will give me happiness… a happiness which is never ended… which last for lifelong…… I met with a little child on a place where he should not be at this small age… a cancer ward …. I went there to donate the blood. He was passing through the lot of pain during chemotherapy but after 2-3 days I saw him smiling…… but why I can’t be happy like him….. That kid is not earning a single penny … his parents are very poor and they can’t fulfill all his wishes… but still I found him happy …… it means that lovely heart and your thinking which makes you happy….
My last diwali, I spent with this child in cancer hospital…that child did not know whether he is going to live more than 3months or not… but still he is happy….. When I bought chocolates, cracker and fruits for him, he jumped like a pure soul… he was happy…. But I was also happy with him…. Why? Don’t know ……. And I think that it was the happiest diwali my life … the reason might be that the greatest happiness is in seeing others happy …… is it really true?…….. I think so as parents are happy seeing their children progress…… a true friend is happy to see his/her friends progress…… hmmmmm…….. So it means happiness is all about your internal thinking and views… but now a day’s most of people don’t like there friend, colleagues will grow… as we all are comparing ourselves with others…. How come this little guy earns so much…? How come he is maintaining a Big car?…. one day I will also purchase one and then I will be happy…… hmmm what’s that?.... don’t know ?..... But I think for sure the Big car will not give you the happiness…….
I think our elders are much happier than us…. Though they were not earning that much at their early stage of life what we are earning now…….. Still they are happy… why?..... As they are more polite and they use their job for earning so that they can fulfill their basic needs. …… they found happiness by spending time with their family, friends, loved ones….. Spent some quality time with their loved one make them happy……now a days we are spending our time on computer or LCD PLASMA TV (which we purchased from our hefty salaries) though we are complaining that we don’t have time to talk to our friends .. and one day the stress overtook us and then we again complained that I am not happy… don’t know why?............. might be that we are all Hippocrates… we know where we all are lagging somewhere but still we are running as we don’t want to come second… it does not matter even if our loved ones leaves behind…….. Basically we become a MISANTHROPE….
We all are running behind all those materialistic things and we think that we will get happiness out of that….. we think we are too intelligent and too smart but the fact is we are a dumb in front of the best player of this game, the name LIFE…….
