Sunday, June 05, 2005 ( ) What is the point of being the greatest swimmer in the world if you are not happy? What is the point of being the number 1 in your field but you do not feel happy? What is the point of scaling the Mount Everest if that is not your main aim? What is the point of doing things if you are actually doing it to avoid something else? So what if you get great praise for doing things? The reason remains the same_ you are doing it to avoid facing another issue! What is the point of achieving a lot of titles, awards, and trophies, the heart is unhappy still. Happiness is an important issue. I live to be happy I eat to be happy I befriend to be happy I am weak I need allies I am unhappy I need laughter It is useless to continue doing things that you are not happy with. It is useless to achieve big things but have no one to share it with. Both situations lead to the same question_ what’s the point? It is of utmost important to do things that you like and not doing it just to satisfy the other party. Sometimes some of us do things to make our parents happy, our friends happy and our family happy, we keep on doing it just to see that smile from their faces and do not wish to hear their nagging, their worrying and their scolding. But for how long will you keep on doing that for others? Have you ever think about yourself? Stop sacrificing your own happiness for others happiness. Happiness does not come knocking at your door everyday. You have to grab it, do not let it go. If you live for others what is the point of living? If you are unhappy what is the point of living? If you have no life of your own what is the point of living? We live for ourselves and not for others. By: MJL 12:17 PM |
