Pursuit of happiness

Saturday, May 01, 2010

Pursuit of happiness is the noblest pursuit there is, if each one of us, did only what we thought would make us happy, I am certain this Earth would have been a much better place, but that is not to be, because we are humans, because we are social animals, and to a certain extent our sense of self worth is affected by what others think of us, at several points of time in our life we come across situations where we must decide for ourselves, "Should I go for what I think will make me happy or should I go for what others tell me most certainly will make me happy", and the choice ofcourse is never an easy one, because we are all afraid of making mistakes and me, I am absolutely petrified, God knows I have made plenty of mistakes in my life, I have done things, I never should have done, I have not done things I should have, I have said things I shouldn't have ever ever said, so many times I said things just to make others happy, in the vain hope that perhaps they would like me more, I have put my trust in people I should never have trusted, all done in the blind pursuit of happiness, in the hope that one fine day, I will feel content and be truly, truly happy.
