Dearest readers,
The word satisfaction comes from its mother word inner peace.If you are satisfied it means you are happy inside out.Atleast you are okay with whatever has happened.There are many times when my mother keeps yelling on me if I am ever satisfied with anything or not.Yesterday was one such day.This got me thinking about my never ending satisfaction levels.
I am a very unsatisfied person,I realised.But isn't it good to be unsatisfied.If you are satisfied with what you have,you will never want more and this will endup in you becoming lazy and underachiever in your life.This would mean end of dreaming and end of chasing dreams.Would it?But then what about the famous quote "Be satisfied with what you have"?Does under satisfaction make you greedy and demanding?Or does it gives your life a new purpose every time you complete one target to attain something newer,bigger and better?
Now here comes in picture the level of satisfaction.I always feel I was capable of getting COEP college,the so called best college in Pune.I am well deserving enough to ride in an Audi or a Mercedees.I need a mansion to live.And I want to marry Hrithik.(Coz now he is single.Age no barrier.)But then only if life was a bed of roses.I have to be satisfied with a MIT,a 4 wheeler and just a flat.So what are my levels of satisfaction?I want more.Everybody wants more.Some people who have mansions,now want to live on the moon! :\ Thus,Level of satisfaction is inversely proportional to acceptance of reality.
We must not be satisfied with what we have but what we can achieve.Have a nice college?aim for a nicer job.Have a nice job?work harder for a promotion.Have a small house right now?make sure you build a larger one and make your parents proud.Ofcourse when the right time comes.Have a loving boyfriend?be satisfied with his love instead of checking out that disloyal guy with a BMW.Have a beautiful girlfriend?Be satisfied with her inner blissful soul instead of staring at that hot chick's short dress.Have only a few loving friends?Its more than enough to live your life then.Lucky you.Know your limits and know when n where to be satisfied and when n where not to.No amount of complaining took anyone anywhere.Not content with something?Not satisfied?Change it.But investigate,if it really needs a change.
Most of all be happy and at peace.So tell me,whats your level of satisfaction?A degree,a job,a house,a wife,a family,a girlfriend/boyfriend who will be your future wife/husband?Or something more?Where do you want to go?Where will you stop?Will you stop?And how much of all of this is going to affect your life and mental peace?Will you STAY STRONG throughout?Go ahead.Tell me.
