Happiness to me meant an address here...@arnab<BR/>Bingo! Happiness to me meant an address here. Now that I have reached it, I have to change my goal to go on. The ever evolving form of happiness makes me think if it actually is reaching/being/having something or is it the journey itself and the employment of all your faculties into traveling towards it? Because when you reach there, it won't be what you strive to be. It is what you are. By corollary, perfection would be boring. Because you have nothing left to be/do/have. Fortunately, one human life span is way too short for all the wonderful things in this world and we have just ample time to chase one dream after the another. And yeah, also paint our scrapbooks with colored pencil and do other such child like things in the meantime :)Aparna Gangulyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08145595106647499958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12934803.post-71011565090482755902008-01-11T07:06:00.000-08:002008-01-11T07:06:00.000-08:00@bubblesAah!

Would give me a vandalistic pleasure maybe.I remember I used to draw with charcoal on my wall and think that I can defeat Hussain with my crooked lines. But creation gave me happiness nevertheless.
