Pursuit Of happiness

A little smile, time spent with friends and family, your school days,your teachers, college and those cruel professors.
Your first date, they all pass by. A moment life tends to flow smoothly and the next moment you realize you are in the middle of no where, with those little something you left behind in life like people you could never talk to, places you always wanted to go as a teenager, that first crush who couldn’t be yours. Things you could never tell your mom and dad, time when you were not around your sibling when he needed you the most, these things never pass by they always remain at the back of your mind and reminds you what you’ve lost with time and tends to make you sad.But as time passes by we tend to get busy in our family cycle wife, kids and try to find happiness amongst those around us.
In this modern age the definition of happiness has become more materialistic, we buy a car, we buy a house and we keep buying things but that’s just momentarily happiness, what we don’t understand is that happiness cost nothing. Man has grown manifolds today economically, technically and in other parameters. This super fast modern man has left emotions and happiness far behind in the race of life, people are earning thousands of rupees every month and lakhs round the year yet they are not happy.
The present man needs to evolve again towards a happier life which is desired by one and all. Real happiness is not being happy on the outside, getting everything you want or satisfying materialistic goals, but enjoying every little moment of happiness which comes your way and simply being happy within.
"Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence."Aristotle
