Pursuit of happiness
All of us, in fact, all living beings, want happiness and wish to avoid suffering.
That seems to be a given life goal. Everything one indulges in, is with an aim to be happy. Our own happiness is supremely important.
And why not one may ask?
The problem arises when the pursuit of happiness for oneself overrides consideration for others, in fact at times stifles it.
We forget that as a living being, a human being, (who has intellect and has the capacity to use it), we are interconnected with others at every level . We work in teams and the joint effort is what embraces individual effort. The food on our table has come to us because of several people who have worked hard for it. And this in the midst of many many who go hungry.
See anything that you partake of. Nothing comes without others’ struggle involved.
Should we not then , as human beings, learn to look around us, express gratitude, be kind and wish well for others?
Happiness cannot be pursued. It is born when we learn to connect deeply to one another and realise that, just like you, no one wants to suffer.
