Happiness Guaranteed !

-

 

‘ There are so many reasons to be happy ‘

Past few  days , I was wondering how life is a crazy ride ….. where , happiness is a direction and not a place !


Weddings ,  anniversaries , a promotion , new businesses , a successful govt. interview ….new enterprises ….phew……. yes….life is a crazy ride …!

Actually , there are no guarantees ….you know …but one thing is for sure , that you will get back what you give ..!

Let’s be meaningful today  , guys … Life is all about today ….Be happy today !


It’s so easy to write and say all this …..right ?....but we also know that in the end , sweating the small stuff won’t matter !


In the past , I always liked the idea of giving up ……hmmmm… I know  what giving up feels like …..Then I thought  to see , what happened if I didn’t ……..and …..trust me ….. !!...I found a reason to be happy …..success is not guaranteed….but not giving up taught me that success is deserved !

That possibility ……that kept me going …..!


We’ve often felt low and beat down by life ………but a guarantee is sure , when I say that we could think of a time or two when we overcame odds and tasted success…..agree ?


I had been to a relative’s 25th Marriage anniversary the last weekend……  ummmmm….a 25 years of bliss ….!

They were  happy and smiling….. until they saw us …..the crazy relatives ….hahahahaha……how they put up with the crazy relatives , their quirky habits ….and still managed a hearty laugh  ……well……

But I guess , they were expecting those  crazy attributes ….the happy look on our faces …..and the shrieks and shouts ……when we met them …….complimented them……..

Any ways …..the secret of a happy marriage …………….. remains a secret !!


Well , sanity and happiness are an impossible combination …..no ?..hahahahahaha

But the most important thing is to enjoy that every moment ……… and it’s all that matters !


My family often used to tell me that I cannot dance ……. I ,  ……many a times stumbled …..you know …… then I started my own steps …….now they love my stumbling dance …..hahahahahaha…. a key to a happy life ……………ooooppppsss……happy dance !


Let’s get real here ….we’ve all had our fair share of bad days …..Maybe , a heated  argument with a friend , a family member or maybe we just woke up on the wrong side of the bed !

But what happens when a sad day takes us over ?.......

Hmmmm…… take a deep breath ….. and as Mark Twain said – “ The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up ! “


Let’s  start celebrating  all the happy times – Past , present and future !.  Today , I remember baba Rannchodd Daas  – “ AAALLL ISSS WELLL “

Hahahahahaha

Happiness never decreases by being shared …..you know !


You know what ….. I’ve often experienced , that happiness takes us by surprise – many a times …… It is not that we seize them  , but that they seize us …… right ?

No one else will be able to make that happen ! 


It is actually what we think about ….. I have learned that the greater part of our miseries or unhappiness is determined not by our circumstances , but by our temperament ……our character lay out !


Happiness guaranteed …………..

Be happy for this moment …………. This moment is your life !

"The Writer's Block"

-
  A   friend recently took me aside and made a point. He was not worried about how I would react. I was nervous too. Of what he would say to me.. Then he made a point …… He asked me to continue writing . He asked me why I had stopped publishing what I used to do before. People out there are looking forward to what I write….Now he wanted me to get going and write… This has prompted me to write and publish again what I lost and missed…. To hell with the ‘Writer’s Block’. When I listened to him that day, I understood that Writer’s Block was not the problem.. The problem laid in ‘not writing anything at all’ ! What I understand is that the only people who think writing is easy are those people who don’t write at all !   No ? The ‘writers block ‘ is not the problem here. It is the fear of not writing well. I am not here for an award or an accolade, I am here because I write and somehow I stopped in between. My audiences here today, may seem a little surprised……but that’s...

The Heart story

-
  Everybody knows now ….. today , it’s an old story..!.. But concerned people still ask me how I feel and how I am faring with my health …….. I’ve been deliberately taking some time   out here…..you know ?.....giving me some space….. giving myself , that much needed ‘ME ‘ time…. I exercised right ….I ate right ….no cheating foods in between hours….my colleagues at office can vouch for me….no oil , no much sweet , no much sour or hot things…. Then why did I get that stroke , when I got one ? You know , I’ve read it somewhere …… that having an Heart Attack is like a surprise party… where , except for presents , you get an ambulance ride ….! Hahahahaha.. I guess , my heart couldn’t handle all the excitement in my life ….ummmm….too many of them ……It was time to switch to a boring routine……..! It had me boggled over and over again…..Why me ? Why ….after all these years ……….I smoked ….all right ! But then last time I checked ( you know where )   …..….my lungs were clear a...

Other Words !

  After some good days ….more news from the planet ! The red hot Sun is turning into dark red and thus spoiling the get-togethers we usually have from 10:00 Am to 7:00 PM……no ? Is it out of context ?…..Yeah….I know ….this is not me……how do I convert myself from a boring article writer to what’s happening at the core of our planet ?    Not me ! Boring ….yeah….getting older , day by day ..ummm….actually I don’t mind getting older ….you know !...but my body is taking it badly….hahahahahaha….! You feel like your warranty has expired and the parts are beginning to wear out ! I was reading a story on Jesse Owens and how he defeated the German athlete Luz Long at the 1936 Olympics in Germany. Hitler was mad at Long , but he bowed down to Jesse and congratulated him in full view of the crowd. Luz Long and Jesse became best friends and when WW2 started , Long wrote a letter to Jesse from the war front. He wrote “ ( paraphrased by me ) I want to meet my wife. I have not seen my...
