SELF CONTENTMENT


SELF CONTENTMENT
Why is there frustration in our life? Why do we feel depressed? Why do things don’t happen the way it should? After all the hard work and the planning why do we face a situation that things do not happen the way it should happen? Most of us face this situation in our day to day life. We are also helpless and tell others that it is not fair that these things happen only to us. In spite of such situations we have to move on in our life. Some of the things we have to keep in mind to move on are recognition, search, and purpose of life.  
.
Recognition is very simple. We have to accept the fact that we give our best to get the best results but we cannot own the result. Do your best and leave the rest to god. Accept the result whatever it may be.
The search is to know what and how things went wrong. By analyzing the things with an open mind we are sure to come out of the mistakes. If there are no mistakes still the results are not as expected then it is the acceptance which should take the roll. We do not own the result at any cost.


The main thing is purpose of life. We all take our lives for granted. We work hard for our living, have family, enjoy and then the end of life. We forget that we have been given this life to live a deeper meaning.  Lets for example we told the group of ladies who had gathered in a place to make a dish of their choice and one of them did a simple dish and the second one had an involvement in preparing the dish and third one was just cursing the person who had told them to do a dish and did not do anything. What these ladies did not know was that the dish which was done with an involvement was selected as the best dish and was awarded. Even though all of them could have done a good dish the involvement has paid the prize.


This is life. All of us are given a life and not every one is told what we have to do. We can do whatever we want in life but like the three ladies it is up to us to decide what we have to do and how we have to use the opportunity given to us. It is important what we do really matters and how serious we are in what we do.


So when we analyze our daily activities and use the opportunity given to us in the best possible way we are surely to lead a happy and self contented life.
