In Pursuit of Happiness

Being a twenty four year old boy, I am trying to find out the sweetest time of my life. Are the beautiful days of my life are left behind or coming ahead? But as of now, it becomes difficult for each and every of my age or an adult to identify the part. Is the life I have left behind spent with my young parents, friends of my age, playing across the village the whole evening, bunking classes in school and college, etc. Or the life ahead with the old aged parents, responsibilities of the work, family, achievements, etc.

Every emotional person can understand from his experiences that past is always beautiful. In reality, whether this was beautiful or not is not notable. But in people’s mind, it is thought to be beautiful. How the dirty water becomes pure after filtration process, in the same way due to the distance of time difference, all suffering miseries were removed from all the past life experiences by refining process humans have in their mind its good sweet experience. So, the past is not just a sequence of time, it is a constant copy of a thought. If someone starts to worry about the sweet times or experiences of his life during his free time, it is not strange or unusual that many small experiences of the past may begin to overwhelm him. Many of his past  life experiences or many experiences shine in his heart, not because it really means that time and experience are part of that very mysterious past today- that past which has no existence, that past which is untouchable, that past which cannot be found again. An old man’s childhood is located in a distant past, so for him childhood memories are very sweet. But, a child thinks that the door to a future dream is always bright.

Sometimes, I try to think what were the sweetest moments and experiences of my life. From the observation, I have found that a person is alive to receive only a few happy events in life. Otherwise the rest of the life is nothing more than just living and spending the rest of the days. Also, it is true that many people don’t even know when these wonderful moments come and go. This is one of the most painful tragedies of most people’s lives. Disregarding the happiness that are found and chasing after the unfulfilled happiness the life of a person comes to an end.

So, it is very difficult for each and everyone to find the sweetest moment of his life. It is the old one who has no chance of having sweetest moment in future but has innumerable sweet memories left behind in his past. So, try to make each and every moment of your life happy and don’t chase after what you don’t have in your life. Make numerous sweet moments so that you can have a wonderful past memories in your old age.
