The pursuit of happiness. Is it a pursuit we are all in but can never fully realize? Does the dream of happiness necessarily result in disappointment - or worse - when not attained?
Isn't it amazing how much happier people with "less" seem to be than people with "more"? I've found this to be true here in India especially.
As I approach the quarter-century mark (read: quarter-life crisis), I find myself contemplating happiness, how happy I am, how happy I should expect to be.
I don't have any answers just yet. What I do know (and hope) is that I and we can find happiness in serving, loving, and giving to others.
As Gandhi Ji said, "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others."
Or as Mother Teresa said, "Do the small things with love, and He will take care of the greater ones."
