Happiness or Sorrow, both are nothing but state of mind. They are emotions which one is TRAINED to feel when something one wants occurs or doesn’t occur respectively. If one wants something and gets it, one feels happy. It is just a state of mind; one has been trained to reach when something like that happens. But, most of the times one feels happy IF some other person does not get what they want. Why is the general perspective so negative and destruction oriented? If I get something I want and the other person doesn’t, then I shall be the happiest… approach to life is so NEGETIVE yet PREVALENT…
From this one fundamental question arises. Can there be Happiness without Sorrow?
Some great philosopher had once said “There cannot be light without darkness”, this universal phrase means that darkness does not exist on its own, but needs light to define it OR Darkness has no existence without light… but, is it so? Is it not the opposite, that Light is defined by the darkness?
But then again we have a paradox in our hands. In space where there is the ultimate sources of illumination (the various suns), why is everything so dark? The answer is Light is revealed only by the presence of an object, which can reflect it. So, let we can say, light – dark – objects are the three fundamental things one needs to have before the experiments can be done.
Enough of metaphors, light is happiness, darkness Is sorrow and the object is the person in question. So, when the object exists but there is no light, the person is sad. Whenever light is thrown on the object, but the object is transparent there is no change in the scenario and the person continues to be sad. Then, the only way to happiness is being opaque and by that it means, reflecting all that is thrown at you…
IS IT?
