Its been so long

Ya its really been so long since I posted last. Reasons?? Do I have to give them...ya was not feeling like writing and was stuck up with some stupid things.
So why am I here again? Well to share a small thought....

I am confused. What do we want from life, change or say a stagnant well settled phase? Well can we ever get settled? You call a person settled, only when he has all he wants or rather needs, and above all he is contented. So I come down to a simple question can a person be ever contented from his life? Ya he can be but for how long? Things change and hence with it our needs change, then how can we talk about being contented? Zest of having and achieving what we need or even what we want, is not bad, infact I feel that is what life is all about. Then why do we always divert ourselves by such scenarios which either don't exist or even if they do they don't last. We always look forward to 'get settled' in life but isn't it temporary? We run away from the fact that life is dynamic, it will change, we try to feel and believe that now everything will be as we have always wanted it to be like and it will remain like that forever. We keep looking for this permanent 'settled' phase of life but we forget life is permanently temporary.

@-can a person be ever contented from his life

Why not?? If you do not compare, feel jealous or egoistic you can always feel contend. When you drink water, you take the limit as it fills the tummy. So is the needs of our everyday life.

I feel life is dynamic and so are the needs. As you grow, your needs and expectations also grow, not because you compare or you are jelous but above all it might be just that you feel you deserve more. after all we are normal human beings and I feel its nothing wrong in feeling this way, if you take it positively.

My philosophy is that we shd move on to other things once v feel content abt sth..lyk a new challenge. Nice analogy by priya abt water. But then,shdn water b enuff to fill one's tummy???Why drink any other liquid?

Hi harashita,
I dont knw about odrs, for me happiness is synonymous to satisfaction, satisfaction of doing something good, satisfaction of achieveing something, even though that might be something ordinary for others, satisfaction of making somebody smile, satisfaction of knowing that somebody loves you, satisfaction of knowing that somebody awaits you...and the list goes on... you correctly said, life is permanently temporary, or else you can say it's temporarily permanent... so u cannot expect permanent happiness from life.... all you can get is from the moment you have in your hand... make the most out of it... get the satisfaction of living it... that's all i want from my life....
