DESIRE

    All of us in this world want to lead a happy and successful life; Every one of us have a goal in our life and we see life from our own perspective and make moves in such a way which would help us to lead a life the way we intend. After marriage it becomes ‘Our goals’ versus ‘my goals’ and we work as a couple to raise family and give them all the right ingredients like proper education, proper habits in order for them to lead an independent and successful life.

    At any given stage desire is something which keeps growing. This is both natural as well as forceful behavior which arises every now and then. If we earn 100K we buy Acura and say salary is not sufficient whereas if we earn 200K we buy Tesla and still end up saying salary is not sufficient; Have we ever said my salary is good enough? Maybe we felt one day until the very next day you see your counterpart buying a beautiful single family home; our mind is deceptive and looking for ways to exploit our thoughts. I see so many proverbs these days and just wonder why everyone is able to relate to them. When desire ends happiness starts to nourish and maybe flourish too. It is just how we control our desire in this materialistic world.

    Everything is based on relative scale ….rather than comparing yourself with your counterparts just look at the population who still eat one meal a day, have very few clothes and barely have a shelter. I personally feel some diseases may get cured automatically if one practices the wordings in the proverb “Pothum endra maname pon seyyum marunthu” !!!
