small,little but true happiness in life.....





This Is one question which may have crossed each of our minds at some point of time in life.
If you just sit and think what are the things that give you happiness you will have bag full of choices and answer for this, but the real question though we aspire to achieve so much in life and  some may even achieve it but do you realize does this all genuinely makes your life happy?..Just sit back think for a minute and somewhere deep down within your heart you will get your answer…

The time since we have been kids and going to school we always dream to achieve certain goals at every stage in life and finally see ourselves at a place where we are highly educated or earning good amount of money for the rest of our lives, some may succeed some may not… some may end up doing altogether a different thing that they dreamt since their childhood.. all the years down we give our hundred percent ,all the hard work, all our time and energy  for whatever it takes to become a successful person after all, but how many of us are truly happy about the way their life is moving at present ….. 

I am no one to generalize things  but in this small life of mine whatever I have experienced or noticed we human beings in this world of competition just want to rise high, push ourselves to the fullest, and do whatever it takes to be a winner at the end, and I guess that’s happiness for some., There is nothing wrong about it though , and for some they fail, get weaken , it is sometimes the situation or sometimes it’s the destiny that change our plans and drop us to a place where god wants us to be and so, We just accept this and keep struggling day and night, work, and earn money we try and  keep ourselves busy 24/ 7 just to get the best in life and fulfill our needs with each passing day, but at some point of time when you are alone, sitting on a couch or lying on your bed having a peaceful time relaxing after a busy day at work have you  ever asked yourself am I really happy doing the things that I keep doing all through the day …  for me it’s a no. our true happiness is somewhere lost around our big dreams and goals… achieving them do give us happiness and satisfaction but these kind of happiness are temporary or short lived.  True happiness lies in little things in life...be it singing aloud, or playing the strings of your guitar, dancing like crazy irrespective of what your neighbors will think, as far as nobody is giving you marks for it..lolz doing all those little things which makes you happy.

Just helping your mom in the kitchen where you get time to talk with her, share laughs and the same time learn and some where this gives us both a beyond measure happiness.. .playing with small kids in the neighborhood and the feeling to be one of them makes you cherish the best times of your childhood is happiness ,spending time with our elders or grandparents listening to their stories making them smile along with you is somehow a true happiness  that is felt within the heart. Or it can also be just relaxing at the beach or observing the beauty of nature makes you recall all the good times in life is what happiness all about so also you can try making tea for the whole family so that at least for a little while they come together, sit ,enjoy  and  mutually yell at you for making an awful tea… despite the fact they will appreciate your efforts and drink it to make you happy…thus by all this I am just trying to explain that though we all are busy doing something or the other, however take out time to do little things in life which at least not others but makes your family, loved ones happy and ultimately makes you happy from all your heart. And I guess this sort of happiness your work won’t give you…just try it out.
