"Key to happiness is to do what you love, with people whom you love"
Well the line seems simple and attractive,cherishing rather. Just remember what you really want to do when you are left with no imposed work and finally when you stand behind to listen to your meek, helpless heart. The heart which is too much manipulative to keep us occupied with the diurnal hangovers and still complains of not being pleased and satisfied. It always has some unfed desires that somehow somewhere remains startled. What to do, how to keep it happy and how to know it is happy?
One method is to have a foresight. Imagine your oldage filled with barrage of mixed memories. You are basking on the only chair you reserved for such precious times in the balcony and retrospecting into the yester years. Will that feeling be full of pride and satisfaction that whatever you did or did not has not contributed to any kind of discontent or guilt. Or something you really wanted to do which you can definitely do today, you couldnt and now you are left with nothing but the fateful designs of brutal meagre time. The ones you wanted to love, the ones with whom you had to share a lot of things, the passion you held and followed, the loose ends that still pinch you hard inside and the glories you collected throughout your age..all will come back as a reflection of a great life you made. Start living your story to give it a perfect ending. Spin a dream, follow it, make it true, embrace the nature, respect the lives of others, feel the good and the bad, do mistakes that do not leave behind an unmangeable repentence, keep your friendship, fall in love, fight everyday to make it the best day and say at the end "I had had a great life"..And if still something is left behind which always does, stand up and get going...........
