What is happiness??
Believe me or not it was such a great pleasure when I choose about this topic, it grew even more while I start to write. I have never in my life stood by this topic I was always against this principle of ‘happiness’ so I feel like I am opening a Pandora box, it make me feel all the more interesting.
How do I start, I was gazing at myself against the mirror last evening and i looked back on my vibes and virtues, phew I dig deep I was not even close to the word happiness. May be it is just not me many more of us fall in the same pit so I thought I can make this write up -
I was working for a reputed firm; trust me at the fag end of my college days it was one of my ‘dream’ company two years after I join the company, I cribbed about for the lack of onsite opportunity, lack of motivation and what not…all these while I get a decent pay and in the middle of best work ethics company. We dwell ourselves in sorrow and feel for outside things rather than on focusing what is on hand, such ‘Blind Spots’ sunken us and make us think ‘I can be happy ONLY if I get that something …’
For few of us America is the synonym for happiness, such people do postpone/hide their happiness until they get their VISA, true in the melee they tend to forget the present happiness and focus too much on the future…people like me who suffer from the ‘Blind Spot’ syndrome doesn’t feel happy even when they get their VISA, it is like I can be happy only when I get my job, ok you got our job, now the H1 Visa transfer will haunt and dread you, then you feel for the so called coveted GC and you long for it. It doesn’t end there, all of a sudden you feel ‘Life in America is insipid and happiness does prevail only in India’ the search for happiness never ends…
Say for the last couple of years barring the month of Oct, 2007 I have always land myself in the middle of ‘Blind Spots’. In the space of an hour (long look in front of the mirror) I come up ‘Happiness is the Lock, Wisdom is the key it is up to us to turn which way we want’
I am happpyyyyyy today i turned the right way :)
