Being happy is an art and trust my friends
things can't buy happiness. We spend a huge share of our earnings to buy the
things which we may use once or twice or sometimes never. But they do not last
long. Today's generation believes in long-term investment so it is
better to stop wasting our money and long hours on unnecessary things to
impress others. Live for yourself and the best way to do so is to create
memories.
There is a proverb "Books are the gifts
which we can open again and again." Here is another version of
it..create memories that you can recall again and again... And every time you
recall it the same thrill runs over your veins. The real long-term investment.
Every single day you are surrounded by
commercials which catch your eye as they are believed to make your life easy
and better.
But wait, loving things and collecting
them is not everything that you are living for.
We buy things just to keep our high profile in society.. Just to show off. While doing so you may fail to enjoy actual
life.
Don't you think it is foolish to live to
show others? Instead, we can utilize it to create memories, for having
"me time" and "family time". However, at the end of the day, everybody wants to be a happy family man...not a lonely owner of a mansion with
used less things that will be for you nothing but junk.
I do understand money is important in life and
we do everything to earn it. But while spending it we fail to make the best deal,
we end up in a loss by buying temporary things, while it can actually
bring eternal happiness at the same or much lower price.
Instead of collecting things, one should focus
on gaining lifetime experiences.
It is simple logic that memories bring a
smile to your face whenever you recall them and things you buy may not create the
same magic.
One more thing to add, you cannot acquire
things for free but moments and memories can be experienced for free too. Not
all, but of course some.
A lot of memories can be created in our
life without spending even a penny. You just need to find the ways which
give you the real kick.
What you need to do is STOP!! living
your life to show others. And it is always great to spend on experiences
when you have someone to share them with.
We cannot live without things but we can
minimize our needs and increase the number of moments to redefine freedom
of life by doing things which make us feel alive and happy.
You can make memories or experiences by
spending time with your family and friends. Which is price less.. And also by
traveling and gaining knowledge about the world around us.
In this artificial world whatever we do is only
to showcase on social media and to get likes. Likes on our photos or videos
from people whom we personally don't know.
We travel so that we can upload pictures on
social media and we fail to enjoy the beauty of the place.
Don't you think how odd it is that we even
upload pictures of the food we eat what fun is that? Instead, we should
observe the people and culture around us.
Everyone just needs to find out what makes them
feel alive or happy. Like travelling and cooking make me very
happy which is a stress baster for me.
I repeat don't spend on things, spend for
creating experiences. At the last stage of life, you should not regret that you have not done this thing yet... And can never do it even
with the crores in hand. So don't wait till you achieve something or gather enough money. Start now to do things that turn out
to be your treasure of memories.......
