'Smile'...It's Free

I was on my scooter, waiting for the red light to turn green. My mind was arguing on some topic where some part of me supported the argument and the other part countered it. I was into deep thinking.There were a father and his daughter too, waiting for the signal to turn green. The girl might have been around 7-8 years of age. When my eyes met hers she gave me a sweet smile, and suddenly my thinking went on the stop. Her cute little face with that smile got my attention, I smiled back. The signal turned green, they went on their route, I went on mine. But something that stayed on my face was that smile I gave her. The smile carried on my face the whole day. That one little gesture by the girl made my day and it was an amazing thing to experience. We come across so many people in our day, most of them strangers, fighting fights we never will know about. The least we can do is give them a smile. Your one small gesture can make a lot of difference. And trust me it feels great. Smiling...

Is Money Happiness?



A year ago, I and my friend were having a conversation about our goals and what we wish to do later in our lives. And he listed out, about travelling, luxury life, a huge mansion etc. My views were no different and all we wanted was money.
Today I understand, it was very foolish of us to think money will get us everything we want. But it isn't our fault, study...get a job...earn money... get settled... this is what we have been taught & this is what is being portrayed to us by our education system and society. And this is what most of us are doing.
I am thankful that this question came to my mind. Is money happiness? Giving it some thought I got a simple answer. No, it is not. I would love to have a comfortable lifestyle and of course, money is really important for my luxury life but for happiness, I don't need money.
I may not be earning right now but I'm already happy with my life. I have the most beautiful and supporting family. I have some really good friends. I have my goals and the most important is I am satisfied with the work I'm doing. What else could I ask for?

On observing, I understood that the root of the rat race is money. Family, friends, nature mankind has everything it will ever need to be happy, then why the greed? why is everyone is in a rush of getting rich?

We are so desperate to get rich, that we hardly have time to understand what real happiness is. Money is just another material like a chair, a key. We need to understand it just a thing. We have been giving it a lot more attention and importance than it deserves.

Remember the times of childhood when you were free and your imagination was as massive as the sky? When you used to laugh on silly things, enjoying life to the fullest. When your eyes looked at everything with curiosity. That is nothing less than happiness. Remember when you helped someone, or you were the reason behind someone's smile and that how amazing it felt? That's happiness.When you have an extra chapatti and you appreciate the taste of the food, it brings a big smile on your mother's face, that is happiness. People are stressing about their grades, jobs, work pressure, struggling with depression but we are surrounded by happiness and positivity all around us, it is our perception that has to be corrected. What do expect to happen when you are constantly chasing money without understanding that money will always run faster.
We need to change our mind-set guys!

Is money really worth it?
Do we have to stress over money?


Money is surely important and it is a part of our success story and we all need it. But happiness is something that is free and has nothing to do with money.
Improve your character, Be Kind, Be encouraging, Be Positive, Spread Smiles and happiness will follow. The world is full of opportunities, and we all will make money but being a good human is what matters. Having a good health is what matters, taking care of yourself is more important.


Stay fit. Eat Healthy. Keep Grinding.
Have an amazing day. Love. Peace.
