Happiness Matters

Happiness has many anchored factors. Some are external, while most of them are internal. The best medium through which happiness can be talked about is time. How happy we were previously? And how happy are we now?

Yes, people weren’t happy a few decades back, but those factors were wars, famines, and plague. Which were inevitable. But now it's self-driven unhappiness.

‘Self-driven’, sounds strange uh? Believe me, it isn’t new. We all go through it now and then.

Let’s imagine a fantasy past, where there were no wars or diseases. People mostly were happy with what they got, because they didn’t know what others got.

The sole reason for unhappiness is comparison. And Social Media gives a great hand in that.

It’s just simple. You are so happy about your great marks until you hear your rank is fifteen. You take a train and enjoy the greatest view of the rising and falling sun, bridges, and forests until you see your friend’s status with an airplane wing. You enjoy your home food like no one until you look at the closely taken pictures of French fries and burgers. You are….. And the list goes on.

Social Media is bad, not worse. Just turn off the background run option, enjoy what you are, and cherish what you have. You have got your scriptwriters out there.
