Seriousness

Why be so serious? Everyone has problems in their own lives. Why not just accept, than trying to contradict or suppress them. Try to solve the problem, than turn against it. If you feel something is not happening right, then leave it. It will take its own course. You cannot do everything right all the time.

It is very important to accept this. People do make mistakes; people do make wrong decisions (mostly out of ignorance than out of any malafide intent). It is better to learn from those and move ahead, than worry over it. Accept the problem with open arms than trying to resist it. The more you resist, the more big will it start seeming. Accept it, and it will vanish. It won’t be a problem anymore. Be relaxed about everything.

This doesn’t mean being irresponsible. There is a difference. Be sincere, honest, and understanding. But don’t let seriousness creep in. You have to be sincere in everything you do, be it at home, or at work. You also have to accept responsibility. Accept it and do not be tense or serious about it, but be sincere and responsible. Then work will become play. People get serious even while playing, which is so sad. Enjoyment is the only purpose of any sport or game, and you should play it only for sheer enjoyment, and nothing else.

The same applies to life as well, as it is just like a game. Everyone has to work, everyone has problems, and everyone has their share of happiness, along with a share of sad moments. Everyone is different and unique. It is not possible to please everyone or be like everyone. Instead of comparing oneself to others, or comparing one’s wealth with others, why not compare with yourself? Everyone has something different with him or her, and we have to accept that everyone cannot get everything. Why not enjoy what we already have than fret about what we do not have? Is it not better to spend time being thankful for what we have than complain about what we do not have?
