The path to Happiness


We are human beings. We consider ourself above all other living beings. Perhaps, because we have got special ability, a gift from god, that is an ultimate power of understanding. The human brain works in accordance to situation better than any other species on this earth. We can think what is good and what is not. We can plan, we can act, we have developed uncountable facilities for our own comfort. We are good enough to control other species and resources on this earth too.

Yet the question remains, have we found what we were looking for?

The way I look on this question, I guess not. We are still in the phase of lookup. But what is that we are trying to look for, from centuries but is still unfounded? I think its just "Happiness" and "Satisfaction". Is it not ?

We humans, since birth till death try to satisfy our need in a hope that this would make us happy. This would probably end our continuous search which has not found its objective since the evolution of humans. We spent all our time to do something, to achieve something, to go for our goals but this never satisfies us. Even if we achieve some of our goal, may be this makes us smile, but again it will exceed our expectations from ourself and life and again the unsatisfied needs will grow.

Look at it this way, We all shall understand this. In life we faces various ups and downs. Which never ends. Sometimes we smile and sometimes we cry, sometimes we laugh and sometimes we feel upset, these are various important parts of life. Suppose life is a journey and we are looking for a beautiful Vally "the Vally of Happiness", however the path is not easy it goes through "the mountains of sorrows". But when we complete our journey and reach that destination "the Vally of Happiness" this gives us a satisfaction and happiness. But again the journey does not stops here. It keeps on going until the last breath. We feel down, afraid and hopeless when we see sorrows coming in our way. But instead we shall prepare ourselves to go through them because they are the exams to test us, so that God knows if a person actually deserves the joy of happiness.

The key to these difficult paths in life is "Courage". Only a courageous person can go through these difficult times, can climb high mountains of sorrow to reach Vally of happiness. The path is not easy but courage supports us and guides us to travel it. During all this time, when you are going through the difficult path in your life you shall always look for God's help. Because only he can give you courage to bear anything. He tests you at various stages and when you maintain your trust in him and you show your courage to him, he clears all your hurdles and takes you to ultimate goal. And when you have suffered you know the value of happiness.

When you follow that path all along, the path which goes through various ups and downs of life, which you think is "the path to sorrow". At the end you'll know it is actually "the path to Happiness".

With best hopes that you will succeed in your life. I pray God give you courage.

World outside the window

  Sitting near the window of my hotel room, I could see the full moon shining bright in the cold mountain night. Must be around 10 or 11 degrees. I could feel the light breeze on my face. Just looking outside the window, it was beautiful, even in the night.  A silent full moon night high up in mountains could be so beautiful and soothing. I felt like my mind was empty of all thoughts. Like naturally meditating with eyes wide open and looking out into silhouette of huge mountains, like staring into wast spread of nothingness.  I could see tiny lights twinkling on small buildings spread across the small town near Shimla, India. Sometimes when i came to senses, a sudden flood of thoughts streaming through the brain. How much we(humans) have progressed. How much nature had paid for our actions. Constantly digging the heart of mountain to make clearings for agriculture and buildings. Yet, nature is forgiving and let us be in peace.  Peace, which is perhaps pet word of my ...

Death is NOT the END

It wasn’t a fine day; in fact I think no day could be fine without her in my life. I was missing her so much. Since we separated, my life was nearly finished. I had no will left to live. Everything seemed so tough and harsh. All I was left with, was a broken heart full of hatred . I hated almost everything which seemed so beautiful when we were together. I was thinking about her as usual. Its been two full months since we stopped talking. I was dying to hear her voice to see her name on screen of my cell-phone. But it was   nothing but a waste. “How could you not stop thinking about her?” I said to myself. Because I was all alone without her, only she could understand me, only she knows me well. But now what? I was talking to myself in loneliness. Even this was not very usual. I used to keep away from everyone. I didn’t like to talk or laugh anymore. It all reminds me of time which I spent with her. “She wants you to be happy. Can’t you give yourself a break.”...
