Happiness- A relative term


Hi friends
Just this morning somebody asked me how I was doing and whether or not I was happy with my life. I replied with a simple “yes all good.”
On giving it a second thought, I realised that happy and good are such relative terms.
My happy or my good is just my happy and my good.
Things that make me happy, may or may not make the other person happy. Like for example- for someone who cannot afford a meal, a bowl of rice would make him happy but for someone who has lived in the luxuries of life, nothing less than a meal at a five star restaurant would satisfy his taste buds.
Our world is so big, we have difference of opinions in everything. Difference of opinions in choices, in our tastes and happiness too. It’s amazing isn’t it?
Now talking about the recent dilemma our country is facing, terrorism. These group of terrorists get happiness in someone’s sorrow and someone’s pain. When the world mourns they are delighted, I wonder how and why? But again happiness is a relative term, so can’t even complain.
