the JOLT!

How many of us realize the value of happyness? We breathe every day, we meet different people, we go shopping, for coffee, to church, but are we really living our life or are we just existing??? I have come across only a few people who are their true self in front of us and the same when they are at home.. these are people who radiate a sense of happyness that makes you wonder..

HOW can they be so content with everything that's happening around them? You just want to be THAT person!! Its not jealousy, nor envy, its just plain wanting to be a little more happy with events surrounding you..

We all get ecstatic when something good happens, but HOW do the 'HAPPY' guys react when something unforeseen happens?? Will they still be in the same state of mind or would they change? Naturally you would; depending on the circumstance but are their really people out there who are totally unaffected by whatever external influences sprout up in their lives?? No matter how bad it is?? I really wonder..

Something happened recently that made me wonder.. its human emotion to complain about something, even though there is actually no real problem.. But when you hear of a bad thing that has happened to a relative or a good friend which is really serious, you start thinking, hey you are way better off compared to him/her. You feel happy, you become thankful, you sigh a relief!! You get back to a positive frame of mind, and yes HAPPY!! This is exactly what I mean by a JOLT to actual situations and getting life back on track. It might make you happy or it might make you more conscious. But its still a jolt with a rude awakening..

The problem is.. these jolts are mostly temporary, and then you slowly loose wind of it all, and get back to your usual self. Question is do we really need these small jolts to get us back to reality every once in a while or can we learn to keep it forever? I think we need to remind ourselves, not to look for a JOLT to get back to being HAPPY..

Yes its all an Ideal scenario!! But there's no harm in dreaming about it and thinking that  IT IS POSSIBLE! ;)
