CAN WE BUY HAPPINESS ??


CAN WE BUY HAPPINESS ??

Lakshmi finishes her work at the construction site and goes to a grocery store.
She realises that she doesn’t have enough money to buy all items.
So she removes the sugar packet from the basket and convinces herself to have sugarless tea till she gets her salary. She leaves disappointingly.
-------------------------
Anita has come to the largest mall in city to buy a new business suit and Breitling watch for his son.
On the way, she sees her favourite bakery selling their best chocolate cake. She wants to buy.
But she knows that she can’t have it because of her diabetes. She leaves disappointingly.

Arun is in a faraway city hunting for a job. He feels depressed as nothing is working out for him. He wants to talk to his mother to feel relieved.
But he has very little money to spend on calls. He is sad.
Krish ran away from his house at an younger age. He got into import and export business and made a lot of money.
He has the most expensive phone, but he feels very lonely as he doesn’t have any genuine person to share his happiness with. He is sad.

Anant is an athlete.
He wishes he had enough money to buy shoes so that he could run like other athletes.
Kamat is a millionaire.
He wishes that he had legs so that he could walk like other people.

The bottom-line is:
happiness = f (money, love, health, time, work, ……)
Happiness comes in different sizes through different variables.
Money is only one such variable. It can buy you happiness sometimes.
At all the other times, it doesn’t matter whether you have one hundred or one million, happiness will still be far away from you.
