Persuit for Happiness

Today as I was sitting idle in the class, I observed a variety of faces.. Some were totally engrossed in their own world, some dozing, some murmuring, and some totally switched off.. Admist all this variety the thoughts which strike me were again something  odd..They were about HAPPINESS.. I was wondering as what real happiness is?? And isn’t it possible to keep this precious little thing with us forever?? Cant we apply some magic and walk with it kept in our pockets.. And from this the switch occurred to another one.. I asked myself a question.. Nupur , when in your life have you felt real genuine happiness?? Oops!! blank.. It took me few seconds to memorise when I was really really happy..  It was when my mind couldn’t stop thinking about my sweetest nana and nani
( Baa & Dadaji).. the love which they showed me, which they shattered on me was so very precious.. unconditional.. That was real one.. that was real happiness. Doing masti at their home, demanding for any recipe at any time..writing on the walls, playing with mud.. All this has gone long long back.. then.. what next?? Next is they left me...

Then was the turn of my mom dad.. Yes for me my Baa Dadaji were before my parents.. My mind turned again to the series of events at my sweet little home. The carefree life with all the facilities, pure khavu, pivu and jalsa!! This was very normal for me at that time.. But then this was a sweet happy happy princess life..Phase over.. Full stop..

Now my journey as a lonely traveller began. I got many many friends but then there was a limit with all.. There comes a time when even if you are surrounded by hundreds of people you feel deserted..lonely.. hopeless.You are at the height of success, you have luxury, you have fame but still you are waiting for some special soul to come and hug you.. be with you, who will  tell you don’t worry sweetie, I am there.. So now you must have understood that I am in a persuit of real happiness!! I am in search of events which will make me happy from within.. And i feel as if I am in heaven dancing with the clouds..filled with lots of real love..

Suddenly there was the announcement of break and all those faces were in no time out of the class. Giggling..trying to come to life..and I was trying to analyse all of those laughing faces..Were these real smiles or humans have learnt the fake one?? Again No answer.. Were they same like me waiting for happiness.. No answer..
