🌻 Who is the Happiest...?

Just a thought…
Who is the most happy person in this world?

Is it the one with extreme wealth?
— Yet, such a person constantly fears losing it.

Is it the one with perfect health?
— Even they live with the fear of falling ill and think twice before enjoying the simplest food.

Is it the one blessed with beauty and flawless skin?
— They too worry about the touch of time and the signs of age.

Is it the one with name and fame?
— Even they live in fear — of judgment, gossip, and the unending gaze of publicity.

Every person who appears happy carries a hidden burden…
A silent pain masked behind smiles — to avoid sympathetic looks and hollow words.

Then, who in this world is truly the happiest?

According to me,
The happiest person is the one who finds joy in others’ happiness.
The one who values love, emotions, and relationships.
The one who rejoices when others smile,
and never allows envy to shadow their heart.

True happiness is never accompanied by envy or selfishness.
It blossoms only when we let go of the words “I”, “Me”, and “Myself.”

🌅 Beginning of LIFE...

“Life is not just for the Body… It is for the Soul.”

The Soul is what is everlasting — ever-living.
It draws its strength and experience by residing in a body — be it human or animal.

Life begins with the interlink of male and female cells.
From that divine connection emerges a new life — a new living room for a wandering soul.

Different souls unite as family, friends, and relations, all woven together by the invisible thread of Runa — the good deeds and debts we owe from our past lives.
It is these unseen connections that lead to the creation of new bonds, and thus, a new Life.

When we speak of human life, we speak of beings gifted with the rare ability to think, speak, and express — to share emotions in ways that others can truly understand.
The journey of human life begins when a woman conceives.
For nine sacred months, a child grows within her, before arriving on this earth as a newborn.

All these are known facts.
Yet, what I consider the true beginning of Life is the moment when one realizes that every life on this earth is equal.

When a person feels from the heart that each and every life — human, animal, bird, or tree — carries the same divine spark, that marks the real awakening of Life.

Life has no form, no religion, no caste.
If we learn to respect and cherish every creature on this planet, the world will be freed from the six inner enemies:

• Kāma – Desire

• Krodha – Anger

• Moha – Attachment

• Lobha – Greed

• Mada – Pride

• Mātsarya – Jealousy

Let every soul embrace this true beginning of Life — and together, may we make this world a beautiful, peaceful, and compassionate place to live in.

Ponder on this… for if this thought touches many hearts, the world will indeed become a happier home for all souls.
