Happiness is not complacency.. U r a cave man agreed!:P u love ur cave.. u r happy.. agreed..but wanting more doesnt mean tht u are unhappy.. maybe u wud just want to be more happier.. Wanting to be more happier can either undo all ur happiness or build it. All on how u take it.<BR/><BR/>@anonymous<BR/>If sadness is emotional imbalance isnt happiness too? is Emotional balance means being indifferent on the overall scale?V3http://www.blogger.com/profile/10513424603684586328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27919331.post-76580195849970094242007-03-19T12:12:00.000+05:302007-03-19T12:12:00.000+05:30happiness huh?<BR/>happiness can be discovered in the most trivial of things...it is the eye of the heart that can see it...to open that eye is ofcourse difficult...the bible declares that"The light shines in the darkness and the darkness comprehend it not" ...i.e happiness is everywhere ,it is for us to discover("without the truth to the eye the happyfolk were blind" as someone said).And regarding sadness it is only due to emotional imbalance.If someone is really that sad then solving the equations of emotional imbalance might help....and i am wonderin how do we do that?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27919331.post-79191744032541455242007-03-19T11:07:00.000+05:302007-03-19T11:07:00.000+05:30Why can't someone be happy? <BR/><BR/>Its because each one of us has a definite measure of happiness which we see in the "ideal happy man" we have created to compare ourselves constantly with.<BR/><BR/>Do not create this ideal happy man, Do not acknowledge all the tatas birlas and other people branded "happier than the rest of us" by the society. <BR/>There lies happiness.<BR/><BR/> I am a cave man, and my cave is the best accomodation anyone in the world can ever achieve.<BR/> And no, I haven't heard of Bill gates or the fact that he can set the temperature of his warm bath 15 miles away from his house.abhiramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11151503546419875555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27919331.post-90299733563901850862007-03-19T02:00:00.000+05:302007-03-19T02:00:00.000+05:30nice post, like always. :) ..just want to say here..though not sure if it would be appropriate, but since we're talking about "happiness" anyway.. every moment we are alive is because there is some happiness within somewhere.<BR/>keep posting.Aishnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27919331.post-36496089747326842722007-03-19T01:55:00.000+05:302007-03-19T01:55:00.000+05:30nice....... sumarised wat we all goin thru....... but i kinda disagree on wat u said. the fact tht when u finish ur duties u will be happy keeps most ppl going. so u see. the only way to be happy is to be pissed of wth life a first.kaustubhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03213132487506163968noreply@blogger.com
