Happiness when you are with yourself

What makes you happy? Are those songs, family members or friends or any other person?
If everything is confined to yourself then, how do you make yourself happy without associating with someone else or without including something else?

My simple answer is the thoughts which I keep.

Recently I realised that everything which is being perceived is actually through the way I think of anything. Whatever I see, I read or learn in my life span, I am gonna color my lens accordingly and see things through that lens.

Realizing this that the song which I use to play in my mind was either negative or complaining about something or someone else. The moment I separate the voice in my head from my own self, I was able to start regulating that voice or atleast start with saying I don't want to listen to this negativity.
Atleast this started making be feel light from my head, reduce the anxiety of dealing with few things.

Later I started realising that our normal state of being is a joyful one, if there is no reason to take stress and feel annoyed then a smile is by default on your face I guess that's when one starts looking at the feelings of ecstasy.

Though this is a starting phase but atleast one is moving towards it. :)

Generation crafting a new generation

Writing a post after such a long time. It has been two years, anyways things collected, contributed and corrected. In this last two years I have

  • collected a lot of memories, 
  • contributed to other's life and,
  • corrected a lot of my mistakes.

Coming straigth to the content of this post. Today while talking to a friend of mine - we discussed about how each generation gets addicted to the then popular things. Like we had social platforms like orkut at the very beginning and then facebook in starting 2011. At that time we all got hooked into it, me myself got addicted, but today there is no such addiction from my side to use such platform. I guess age do change few things.
Today if we look at people who are at their 20s, they are getting hooked on to mobile games like pubG and other social platform which has emerged lately like tiktok and instagram.

So I guess all such things will keep on coming for different generation, which will grab their attention and get them hooked into it. The major question is what those addiction does to that generation, what is the output at the end?

There was a time when gutkas and biddi were popular among people, then we came who got hooked into social networking platforms (facebook) and then video sharing platform (instagram). Looking at this, somewhere I feel the later generation is the creator of things which the new generation consumes. If it is true, then the biggest question comes forward is what we are creating today which the newer generation will consume!

Pretty interesting - need more content to evaluate this.

Goals - long term vs short term rewards

 I guess it has started to be clear now that it's the goal which drives a person or else he or she may fall in the grip of the activitie...
