Oh Muruga!
I see you.
I talk to you.
I have experience you.
When I share the experience with others, they stare right back at me "BLUR" ...**sigh**
If only they can see what I see.
You are my 'bestest' buddy.

Happiness
Forget the self-help books. No book or person can promise you happiness.
Why aren’t we all joyous? What the hell is going on?
The goal of life is life.
To many creatures there are but a few necessities of life: food, water, shelter. To a bumblebee, these are a few flowers full of nectar. Even humankind is led by these primary drives, although we have invented not only the house and clothing but fire to cook our food. What pains we take during the holidays, with our mincemeat pies and rum cakes. The poor won’t complain that they have no food for their families, and we devote a great deal of our economy to agriculture and housing.
Of course, the effort for self-preservation is vague and varied. There is, for instance, the need for understanding and knowledge to guide our emotions, to tame the beast in our animal nature. What shameless and chaotic lives many of us would live if we were not awakened by better desires from within.
Our behavior is motivated by needs and wants. Pleasure and pain consist in the extent to which these desires are satisfied or hindered. “Pleasure” according to Spinoza, one of the greatest philosophers of all time “is man’s transition from a lesser state of perfection to a greater. Pain is man’s transition from a greater state of perfection to a lesser.”
Here is a goal – completeness and power – that is wonderfully attractive to us at a time of recession, and when many lack the means to feed and clothe themselves. And when we have found all power, we may not be happier for it. When we have overcome our struggles and have no ambitions and no defeats, what do we do next? Build taller and more splendid houses, weave finer clothing? Where does the power to act come from when desire has been quieted?
The keenest pleasures are for those who experience the keenest pain.
You can’t change the equation of life. And remember, while the world is celebrating the holiday season, if you’re depressed and have the blues it’s just money in the bank. And when your turn comes, spend it on something that you will be proud of.

Did you ever wonder some people didn’t fare any better than you or I despite all their money, fame, and access to people of wisdom?
The answer lies in your own backyard. The goal of life is life.

Neither in this world nor elsewhere is there any happiness in store for him who always doubts.
