Journey or Destination

 Have you remembered the last vacation you went along with your friends?

There might be a joy that got attached to you even before the onset of the Journey. That joy should have made you the days even happier than all. You haven't cared about any minor disturbances that appeared between the days. You ignored it. You may not even notice it.


You might have boarded the same annoying bus which you used to go for your college/work. But there is no discomfort. Your thoughts were entirely focused on the Journey. You had a slight smile over your lips. It elongated and dwindled over time but not totally faded away. You might have listened to songs that chill you.


Now on the day of the actual Journey, you made all the necessary preparation to make the Journey safe and, most importantly, joyful. 

Some may join in between, and some may leave you when their destination arrives. We sent them with a happy gesture, along with tiny droplets in the eyes.


You might have danced to the songs, chatting with friends more, having food along with them, gossips, everything you wished to share you might have shared that day. You might felt a sense of relaxation and weightlessness in your mind. And then finally we reached the destination, the place we planned to come for. The whole place looks beautiful for us.



Just think about the entire Journey. What will you remember?

What made you happy, The Journey or destination?


Your inner voice says, Journey.


Sometimes we stick hard to the destination and forget about the absolute joy which lies in the Journey! Just think, what if you boarded the bus/train to the vacation with your friends and you slept throughout the whole Journey and woke up at the destination? You feel that. Oh my god, I missed the entire enjoyment.

Journey/life, same conditions apply. We have to choose to be happy at the moment. This may be the old metaphor used overtimes, but the moral never gets old. 

We always want to go on another journey, the same as in the past, for many it never happens. Whenever you feel low, sit back and open the photos you took on the Journey, it will unfold the happiness again.


Yours lovingly,

Naga Surya K

Forgiveness

   This is one of the real ways to happiness. It is not an easier thing to do. It makes us feel good by ourselves. Can you forgive easily... You can say it depends upon the action, what he/she done to you. I agree with your thoughts.  There are some exceptions to what you cannot forgive. But most of the incidents happened can be forgiven! You will get angered, when the person - you trusted most is doing a thing which is against you - or doing what you don't like. At these times, you may feel that you made a mistake by believing him. You may feel that you are cheated, misused. This types of feeling make you sad and don't affect the person who caused this. Your happiness goes off! How to get rid of the feeling?
