Live Life : Choose : Hapiness , Love, People.

Have met lot of people, friends, relatives. Full tension da ! big lines on forehead, suffering with BP, diabetes.
No Kids at times, making lot of money, having huge assets base. People respecting them, speaking highly of them. But FULL TENSION DA !

I was unable to understand this phenomenon, read lots of book, heard lots of sermon from wise men, but failed to understand the myth of TENSION. I first had my bout of nervousness when i was in 8th class, i guess. In fact even earlier, all PTMs were nervous breakdown sessions. Board exams, teachers thrash, peer pressure, girlfriend pressure, no pocket money pressure, failure pressure, college pressure. All these were pressures. NO TENSIONS.


Once i completed my education and jumped in the rat race to become something, to earn some money, to secure good things for myself early in life, I guess thats where the real tension phase started.
After almost 15 years of slog, i guess the hardwork was worth it. But when i sit and look back or ahead, fortunately , no tension.


I am happy with what i got in my life, and happier for what i didn't, because what i didnot get and others got was worse. This view of life, helped me being content, Inspite of people instigating me, with these strategic iputs like :

  • No you should compete, life, is not about just being cool and happy with what you have.
  • One day you will face the consequences of not planning ahead.
  • People from your batch, your school, your ex company are doing this, earning, that, went there for Holidays, bought this for holidays. What have you achieved ?


I dont know the answer yet, but i feel, i am happy from inside, with i have got, what life gave me, whatever i have earned.

  • I am happy with my friends,
  • I am home on time to spend time with the my family and kids
  • I have my elders and  life support system nearby.
  • I have most of the happiness and good things in life which any family man would ask for in this world.
  • I love my life, i love my job, i love people around me.


I guess, No tension is the choice i made, Taking No tension, be happy, loving my life, the way it is.
Loving people around me the way they are.
BAsically accpeting status quo. Brought this equilibrium.


  • Why worry about things we cant change. ? Rather focus on things that we can DO.
  • Why worry about past or future ? When, what matters is our present.
  • Why worry about things we dont have ? whereas what we have is , what we deserve and earned.
  • Why getting too high with our jobs ? its just a job not your life, life is out there.
  • Why rubbing people when on the chair, with a power do so ? The chair will not be there tommrow, the people will still be.


Go make a Choice, CHOOSE to be HAPPY, CHOOSE to LOVE PEOPLE, CHOOSE to love your family and friends.

These are the choices that matter.
