we are not happy with what we have, but all are stressed and not happy for the things we don't have｡｡｡just after buying a new phone, we need another one｡｡｡better laptop, bigger TV, faster car, bigger house, more money, and I mean, these examples are endless｡｡｡the point is, does it actually worth? do we ever think if we actually need those things before we want them?
after this, I was forced to think what I need and what I don't｡｡｡
wen I see my father, he has a cell phone worth Rs 2,600｡｡｡whenever I ask him to change the phone, he always says, "It’s a phone; i need this just for calls." & believe me; he is much happier in life than me with those limited resources and simple gadgets｡｡｡ the very basic reason why he is happy with so little is that he doesn't want things in life to make it luxurious, but he wants only those things which are making his life easier｡｡｡ it's a very fine line between these two, but after looking my father's life style closely, I got the point｡｡｡he needs a cell phone but not the iPhone｡｡｡he needs a TV but not the 32" plasma｡｡｡
Ultimately it's a single life, a day gone is a day gone｡｡｡ I believe if I am not happy tonight, I'll never be happy tomorrow morning｡｡｡ I finally realized that meeting friends, spending quality time with your loved one's; spending time with yourself is the most important thing｡｡｡ If on #Sunday you are alone and you don't have anybody to talk with, then all that luxuries life, all that money is wasted｡｡｡
may be cutting down your requirements, re-calculating your future goal in the light of today's happiness is a worthwhile thing to do｡｡｡ & always remember that you should have some targets to achieve in life｡｡｡those targets might be smaller or bigger ones; that doesn't matter｡｡｡ be ready to achieve them I myself trying to attain my own tasks these days｡｡｡you know what ? it makes my life quite interesting and am not at all bored ｡｡｡
Likewise just go for it｡｡｡make sure that your aim and achievement never hurts anyone in anyway. Life is just after all what we are making out｡｡｡ Stay focused｡｡｡ Good luck!｡｡｡
