Real Joy of Life

Life a gift of nature. The meaning of life is a philosophical question concerning the significance of life or existence in general. It can also be expressed in different forms, such as ,”Why are we here ?”, “What is life all about ?” and “What is the purpose of existence ?” It has been the subject of much philosophical, scientific, and theological speculation throughout history. There have been a large number of proposed answers to these questions from many different cultural and ideological backgrounds.

Here we are not in a mood of discussing what is life.  We are going to discuss how the life should be led. Life, gift of nature, can be led as per own’s wish but the question is, “Are we satisfied ?” or “Are we enjoying life ?”

Mostly we search for happiness of life in the materials which we possess. We, when all these present facilities were not there, do lived a life, a life which was simple, life full of satisfaction, a life full of happiness. Our ancestors lived such life.

There were no gadgets, which are presently available, then also they lived a happy and satisfied life. Still they didn’t complain for their life. They had their ways of amusement and refreshments. They enjoyed in their own way. Why, why they were satisfied ? Why they were happy ?

The answer is very simple they didn’t compare themselves with others. They just believed in themselves. So they were satisfied and could live happily. The search for happiness not in the materials they possess but in their innerself.

Now, coming to the present world life. Simply, A life of Commuter, A race, A race to success, A race to leave all behind and be a winner, To possess the luxurious materials and to boss over their possession, to show off all others that they are very much happy and satisfied.

Now a days people are not concerned with the inner happiness of themselves. They just want to show off to the world about their materialistic wealth. How much more they possess these wealth then the others. And by showing this they feel happy and satisfied.

But the question is, “Are they really happy ?”, “Are they really satisfied ?”

They feel enjoyment of life in going shopping or to any luxurious hotel and stay there for couple of days. “Is this the enjoyment of life ?” “Is the soul satisfied ?” or just fooling ourselves that we are enjoying our life.

The real enjoyment of life is to satisfy our soul and not to show off how much we possess the materialistic wealth and to boss over it. Make the soul enjoy the life and you will enjoy the life for ever till the end.

“Zindagi Ka Safar,

Hai Ye Kaisa Safar,

Koi Samja Nahi,

Koi Jana Nahi.”

“Kisiki Muskurahato Pe Ho Nisar,

Kisiki Ka Dard Mill Sake to le Udhar,

Kisiki Ke Vaste Ho Tere Dil Mai Pyar,

Jeena Isika Naam Hai.”
