On a blisteringly cold November day i was chatting with a colleague... again and again the discussion was treading the path of 'hapiness'.... its amazing how many people are looking for this one thing in life day-in day-out!
I cant express how i feel about this strange notion of happiness... its not something you can contain, hold-on-to or predict the occurrence of... you can plan everything expecting a happy ending and it might not happen that way. Similarly it's those unexpected moments that really bring you so much joy and happiness... things you never really planned for....
The key to happiness is to be content... Ask yourself the question, are you really content with your life? are you content with what you have done today? did you value the day, do the best you can today?? don't go in and out of life like a zombie... working for something you wanna achieve tomorrow, studying for something you wanna achieve tomorrow, living today for a better day tomorrow... really there is no worse thing in life than to live for a tomorrow...cause tomorrow you will be living for the day following... its a endless cycle and i see so many people just zombied in this race...
If you really want to be happy, try starting with being content with what you have today... if your studying now in search of job... then don't do it because you must get the job.. then you will see only the pains of learning (like the exams, the assignments..etc) and be burdened with the pressure of getting through... study with a passion to learn, with a passion to think differently and open your mind... you will love the experience and soon you will realise that the results come automatically.... if you live for the day, making the most of each day that comes to you... before long you will be doing things which make you content, leave you happy.
..and even when things don't go the way you want them to.. nothing will leave you miserable... cause you know you did the best you can and it will leave you content, clear and just focused on what can be done... not what has happened already...
