Most want a simple life without any complications... I wonder if they really understand what 'simple' stands for? And when they themselves create all the complications I am not sure how a simple life can be achieved...
We play mind games... we wont go & ask what happened... we try to source out information... how simple is it to say sorry or thank you or to say a few kind words... but we don't do any of it... we play games and complaint that our life is so damn complicated!
There are people who say that why should we tell our family and our loved ones we love them... they already know... if we tell them will the love increase or decrease? hmmm... neither... but the person you tell it to will feel cared for and happy! So simple...
But a question of "Is there a need?" arises...
Need for what... need to make a person happy or expressing your love... in both the cases maybe there is no need... then probably there is no need for children to be told that you love them... why do you need to hug them or kiss them or get them gifts? Don't they know? There is no need for husband & wife to stay together... after marriage they should fall in love if there is no need for expression then what is the point in staying together... We all have 6th sense we all should know who loves us & who doesn't... isn't it? HuH!!!
There are certain things in life where actions speak louder than words... and some things in life don't have a reason. In fact, they don't need to have a reason... one should do it because one feels like it!
Smile... laugh... cry... hug... kiss... splurge... make others happy... express your love... shop... have an ice cream... get wet in the rain... fight with your sibling... crack stupid jokes & laugh endlessly on them... giggle... have a pastries & chocolates... buy flowers for yourself or gift it to others... cry on sad & stupid movies... dance... sing... fight with your partner... make up all fights... shout... run carelessly... in short enjoy... as simple as that!
Don't add complications by thinking what people might think... if you are approved some place you are disapproved in some... why add complications by thinking what some person might or might not think... for all you know no one disapproved... its just your thought!
In life everything boils down to contentment & satisfaction... But we never get them because we look at big things... investments... property... planning... retirement... education... in this whole thing the big picture hides the little joy giving moments... the love glances... the giggles & laughs... and many such countless moments are lost & missed in the process of achieving goal after goal... And in solving complicated self created questions!
It is so rightly said "it is so simple to be happy but so difficult to be simple"
Nice one Veena. Very true! It is the simple things that give us so much of happiness and we remember it for life.

hey veena,
ReplyDeletemaybe thats why you have a "happy singh" and not "Simple Singh" but there are exceptions, Simple Kapadia :)
What you have told is simply true!
ReplyDeleteI like your finishing punchline - it is "simple to be happy, but difficult to be simple" That is the crux of life.
