Moderation



"I have one life and i just wanna spend the rest of it happily. I wanna second all the negative emotions like anger, anxieties, fears, etc once for all". For many days, i went to the bed mesmerising these words. Even for a few days i exercised a small task; i go to some place, pick anyone at the random, ask her/him what does s/he wants from life? The unanimous answer was happiness. Amidst all, arises the million dollar question:

"What exactly is the happiness?"
Is it just a state of mind, rather a temporal state of mind. Some humour, jokes or entertainment. Surf it on the Internet, it's written everywhere that it is within us itself. It is hidden in our own mind. But where exactly is this treasure box in our minds.

Examining the situation with the view of economics suggests that demand of happiness is extremely high but supply abysmally low. Everyone looks in need of it. Which implies that the one who can sell happiness can become the richest guy on this planet, perhaps without incurring any sort of expenditure. Be the richest guy by making people happy around you. You'll be the richest, in-fact the happiest, person. Happiness grows by sharing happiness. It's in "Be good , Do good"

Happiness is always in disguise. There is nothing like absolute happiness. It is in talking to your best buddies. Happiness is in being inane, being crazy, being yourself. It is in helping, in giving, in blessing and many more. Happiness is not spending the rest of life looking for it. It is in forgiving, it is in living; Living the life itself.

  1. Encounter:
    Once a group of 500 people were attending a seminar. Suddenly the speaker stopped and decided to do a group activity. He started giving each person a balloon. Each person was then asked to write their name on it using a marker pen. Then all the balloons were collected and put in another room.
    The people were then let into that room and asked to find the balloon which had their name written on it within 5 minutes. Everyone was frantically searching for their name, colliding with each other, pushing around others and there was utter chaos.

    At the end of 5 minutes no one could find their own balloon.
    Then, the speaker asked each person to randomly collect a balloon and give it to the person whose name was written on it. Within minutes everyone had their own balloon.

    The speaker then began, "This is happening in our lives. Everyone is frantically looking for happiness all around, not knowing where it is.

    Our happiness lies in the happiness of other people. Give them their happiness; you will get your own happiness. And this is the purpose of human life...the pursuit of happiness."
