Are You Happy?

We as humans have a tendency of denying (or at least delay) ourselves happiness. This is The biggest, if not the only reason we are often left unhappy. Coz we live in a predominantly self-imposed restricted life, that affects nothing and no one but us. That no one has thrust upon us, but we simply assume and we impose.

Let me throw in a few real-world examples to clear this out:

That cone of ice cream that you wanted to have, but chose not to as the people/person you were with was not into it, happiness denied. That weekend getaway plan, that crossed your mind, really intrigued you, but you skipped on it as you didn't want that extra burden in your wallet, happiness denied. You left that one chance for true love, coz your family was against it, and happiness was indubitably denied. You got the point right? How many such scenarios did your mind just come up with? If none did, you are doing it right keep doing it 👍 , if many did, you are just human, try realizing it.

After a few years down the lane, we one day wake up (figuratively) and have regrets about not living life to the fullest, and the most unfortunate thing in that situation will be that we have no one but ourselves to blame for it. I wish more and more people realize this sooner than later and stop paving their own way towards an inevitably unhappy and unfilled life.

How long are we around here for? 30 good years with no money, 50 stressed years with no time, 60 troubled years with no energy, or 80 disease-ridden years when it is too late for any of it? Life's true expectancy actually cannot be quantified in a number, that's just the validity of our bodies. Our life's actual expectancy lasts only as long as a blink of an eye lasts. It's the point you deem acceptable enough to put an end to your consciousness and leave behind raw materials for the stardust that began it all.

Ofcourse you dont know the real value of someone or something until you lose them.

When you dont have them: You dont know what their presence is like.

When you have them: You havent experienced their absense to compare it with.

And when you lose them is only when you finally and really come to know the real meaning of their presence in your life.

Its better to have loved and lost than to never had loved at all. But you only lose if you blew up your second chance as well.

Its the people who lose someone twice are the ones who dont deserve to have them back.

Here's to second chances. The real appraiser of emotions.

Experience Gained, Definition Changed

Perfection is getting it right every time or making the wrong right.

If the right is wrong and wrong is right, then being perfect means getting it wrong every time or making the right wrong.

Either way, perfection is basically being consistent at one thing or the other.

The world is what and how we see things. If you want, what you want could be yours by wanting what you already have, that way you'll always have what you want.

Everything is basically either good or bad until the observer has that hinging detail pointed out to him.

We are who we are because of those biases we have for our favorites, because of those weaknesses we couldn't overcome, because of those priorities we have.

But in the end, definition would change only for the one looking.
