Happiness........

For me, happiness is a collective entity. Happiness is not an individualistic characteristic, but a group's trait. Even the biggest success of life can stop bringing a smile on our faces, if we don't see our near and dear ones smiling. On similar lines, even the biggest sorrows might disappear from the mind for a moment, when a loved one seems to be happy .

For me, happiness is all about myself relative to others, and others relative to myself, and, ofcourse the others here being my near and dear ones. I fail to see the celebration of my success with pomp and show when my best friend has had a let down. Similarly I fail to find a reason not to celebrate when my closest friend is getting married on the one hand, and I have had a let down on the other.

Happiness is about sharing with the caring. It's contagious in the sense that it spreads to you when your loved one is happy. It's contagious in the sense that it spreads to your loved one when you're happy. It's true that staying happy is the best way to stay healthy. And, staying healthy is the best way to stay happy.. And there comes a vicious cycle.

Happiness has a magical touch to it. There is nothing happier than happy :) I wish all my loved ones a happy happy :) :) :)
