How Should I Feel Happy For?

How Should I Feel Happy For? 

A man was riding his old kick start scooter.

Returning back from his boring job.

He was lost in the thoughts of sadness.

He had achieved nothing big in life.

Had done nothing special for his parents, wife and kids.

Suddenly the empty road transformed into a massive traffic jam.

He became even more stressed.

In a few minutes as he moved a little ahead, he saw the reason for jam.

A dead body of a young man almost similar to his age was lying in a pool of blood, eyes were open staring in the sky.

Clothes were torn, bike was lying broken on one side of road, so was a broken tiffin with food spread on road.

An ambulance shouting the agony of that man was standing in one corner.

The ward boys were picking his body to carry towards his last journey.

He must have left his home wearing tidy clothes on his bike, his mother or wife would have cooked food for him with so much love, why didn't he eat it? They would be waiting eagerly for him to return and talk to them, smile at them, sit with them, support them, love them.

They would have no idea that a man went away but a body will return back.

They would keep craving to catch a glimpse of him alive their entire life.

Thinking all this, he got lost somewhere in that dead man's life.

Soon he started sweating and had tears in his eyes.

He went back home, hugged his wife and children and cried hard for the next few minutes.

From that day he never looked for special reasons to be happy and to live his life.

Don't criticise your life. It can be much more tough than it is today.

“Feel happy because you can still feel this amazing feeling!”

The Real Pearl Necklace

 The Real Pearl Necklace Jenny was a bright-eyed, pretty five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny saw a plastic pearl necklace priced at $2.50. How she wanted that necklace, and when she asked her mother if she would buy it for her, her mother said, “Well, it is a pretty necklace, but it costs an awful lot of money. I’ll tell you what. I’ll buy you the necklace, and when we get home we can make up a list of chore that you can do to pay for the necklace. And don’t forget that for your birthday Grandma just might give you a whole dollar bill, too. Okay?” Jenny agreed, and her mother bought the pearl necklace for her.

She wore them everywhere-to kindergarten, bed and when she went out with her mother to run errands. The only time sh...
