We live in a world which is so vast and contemporary. All of us have a reason to live for, to work for, to die for and many other involvements. But don’t we forget to make ourselves happy? Most of us earn to have a pleasurable living, all we ask for is a grand house, a loving mate, children of own and a tranquil life. In the hustle-bustle of the metropolitan cities people are hooked up to their typical 9 to 5 jobs. The truth is, competition is present everywhere no matter in whichever field we step in. Citizens are slowly forgetting their culture and traditions; their relationships are deteriorating because of the aforementioned lifestyle. Individuals are engulfed with work from day to night, their day starts early in the morning, barely in the twilight, and ends late at night when they are exhausted. The objective of all these activities is to earn a lot of money and have a luxurious life at the click of their fingertips. Even after accomplishing all this, still, their greed and thirst for fame and wealth remains unsatisfied. Every time a person reaches higher position his desire increases, he gets trapped in the “mayajal” of a human’s life as stated in the holy Vedas. One gets lost in this world of marketing, gambling, diplomacies, bribery etc. They get enthused in these matters to such an extent that over time people almost overlook the fact that they even have a family life to cherish, to enjoy moments with their children and their loved ones, or have a jovial nature around the house .Human beings have completely neglected these aspects, in order to succeed in their careers and workplaces they need to a spend quality time with their beloved and get relieved from all the problems at once just by sharing it with their near and dear ones.

We do not have any clue as to how much of a fruitful time can we use and do the things that we like. Who knows that the next morning he or she will be able to see the morning sun? Yet all of us have some insatiable feelings for each other. In spite of knowing the ugly truth that at the end, when one leaves for the heavenly abode he just takes his karmas and love along with him rest everything else; money, clothes, jewellery, possessions are left behind. Some people are obsessed with their own outer beauty, no matter how dark on the inside they are, it is all given up by the spirit of the soul and all that lives is the ethos of the person. Our forefathers said to our parents and our parents pass that prized advice to us that is; after bereavement of the human body it is the legacy that is remembered, the way the individual has acted with the community, the generous wishes and prayers a person has been blessed with through his entire living, sequentially affects the fate of his offspring. So even if you don’t want to be a good person, become one for the sake of your generation and relationships, what actually is the harm in being one? Think of those unfortunate people who don’t even have the privilege of having a family, all the kids in orphanages, the elderly in old age home feel the lack of love, care, and affection, most of all the treasure of having the near and dear ones to share their state of mind with. So, think before it’s too late, for time does not wait for anyone, try to be happy and make people happy around with your presence and personality. A smile is the best piece of jewellery you can wear. Life is too short to be sad, live it to the fullest. Have the epiphany that optimism and congeniality are secret ways of having a prosperous and flourishing life time. Therefore, sprinkle a little pixie dust of bliss and ecstasy in your living and make the world sparkle with the cheerfulness inside you.
