Life, Adventure and Stability!

Tweet

There are times when we are so overwhelmed by the pressures of uncertainty that we desire nothing but an easy chair, a cup of coffee, and loads of time to relax. Yet, there are times when the mundanity and monotony of the most lucrative of occupations tend to cause innate dissatisfaction. We all have stories of struggle and success, boredom and adventure. But no matter where you get, there is a perpetual longing for higher goals and greater experiences. Yet the higher up you move on the ladder, you tend to crave for all that you left at the bottom of the ladder. Almost like the concept of singularity laughing down at you. To top that, we humans are governed by a comparative notion of happiness. Your desire for that Ferrari, that Malibu beach house, that private jet, NOT because you want it, but because others don't have it. To throw more light on what I'm saying, let me give you an example. Consider two cases, one of a homeless man who manages to land a job and live a basic life of dignity, and another of a rich businessman who trebled his already large inheritance. Who do you think tasted a sweeter form of happiness? Perhaps it is not the the destination, but the quantum of leap that matters. Perhaps life is always meant to an adventure - unsafe and uncertain. Perhaps it's time we moved beyond the socially preconceived ideas of happiness because if history teaches us one thing, it is that THEY CHANGE!!
