Happiness

I will recite this article by two recently happened incidents during my malaysia stay

1) After some how managing with palm oil(yep , they have named me palm oil , after being inspired by my intense hatred for palm oil ) for 2 weeks , on one morning of sunday , landlord of my newly hired condominium ,deiced to take us for gurudwara ! We all were excited and our excitement and hunger too grew bigger , when our landlord announced that in gurudwara u can have dal-roti( main course of indian food) at free of cost ! well , so we reach to gurudwara and after some worship , go to take our main course ;) ! To describe food , it was one day old dal , curd and not less than 3 days old roti ,those were not properly cooked. well to be very frank if i were at my home than my mother wldnt let me eat that food at any cost !But , when I ate this food , i liked that more than any thing ! Even it was looking me more delicious than my home food !

2) Well , being a part of typical middle class indian family , i have never been exposed to much of luxury( yeah , the things which are here available to common men e.g. air-con, microwave oven , swimming pool are still out of reach to common common indian people and are considered things of rich persons and are named as luxury ;) well choice of luxury is relative ! I will write about that in detail in another blog ) ! so , when i saw air-con , bath-tub , good sleeping bed in my hotel room and then microwave oven in my apartment and then swimming pool for us to use being part of alpine condominium , i was highly impressed ! i thought it like life is happier than ever ! But( again its a BIG BUT ;) ) to my astonishment , it didnt take more than 3 days to disappear my happiness , momentary generated by all these so called happy living things ! really today i even hardly care that i have some thing which i didnt use to have in india ! because , I am habitual of those things !


so based on those two recently happened events what i conclude is , when some thing that looks good at particular place , particular condition become bad on another place another condition and vice- verse !that means state of things are variable , things depend on person , place and condition ! one cant define any thing as uniquely best and uniquely worst in full domain of conditions , place and persons !if having a ferrari is considered valuable in this time then perhaps having a bull-cart would have to be consider valuable in 18th century ! If this is the case then why to become happy for having some things and why to feel proud for having money ( if one purchase only things by money ) ! Things can never add value in one's life ! Things can never bring happiness ! Happiness can be added to one's life only through intelligence and love ( till now i can think of only these attributes ) and for having these two one need not be son of rich father ! Every one is equal on this scale , that is beauty of mother nature ;) !
