Me - Clarity about what you want tends to make for uncompromising scenarios. Wistful thoughts are the only beaten paths that life allows you to take. Its either your way or the highway.
I don't wonder whether life would've been different. I'd have to have been a different person for that to happen. Problems of coping with drudgery arise only when you have options, but no time.
Arun - What I want, or for that matter everybody wants, is peace and happiness. I don't understand whether that lies on my way or at the end of the highway.
Me - Peace and happiness. The fanciful, intangible constants of our lives. If the milestones don't tell you if you're on track, maybe its time for a GPS overview, to get the lay of the land.
A man decided to follow his dreams. Problem was that every time he woke up, he lost his way. Didn't give up though..... Last heard he was sleep walking through his dreams.
Arun - I think almost everybody dies without ultimately attaining peace and happiness. Is the whole of humanity walking on the wrong path?
Either we are all on the wrong path or looking for wrong things!
Me - Where the search for peace and happiness is conscious, one charts one's path. You have an inkling then if you're on the wrong path. For most of humanity, peace and happiness are incidental by-products of life.
Arun - I think the simplest thing to do is change the definition of happiness. Accept what is as ought to be and take pleasure in that.
Me - Bingo! You're lucky that you can introspect about arrival to peace and happiness of choice. For most of us, these are higher order needs that rarely come into focus. Not every one knows what they want
