The persuit of happyness!!

That night I was feeling really bored. I went to my roomie and asked to give me any movie to watch. He showed me his collection. Some 50 movies in a folder. I was not used to watching many hollywood movies, so I didn't know.I asked him to give me the best one among them. He said "persuit of happyness" is good , his friends told him.

I started seeing it and within minutes I was lost in it.It is the story of every struggler-the only difference being not everyone is like chris gartner!!

Everything about the movie was awesome -the bay area of san fransisco, the brokers, the office, the roads, the church, the mad man, the wife, the child, the bosses..just everything...but GOD what made the movie such a good watch was Will Smith. While I was watching the movie I broke to tears in many of the scenes...I was just wondering who else can play chris gartner so beautifully the will smith has played it.

Some of the scenes that really touched was when He was watching people - wondering what makes them so happy. The scene where he runs out of a cab because he didn't had enough money to pay the cab driver.

We appreciate that chris, but wear one tomorrow because tomorrow's gonna be you first day if you like to work as a broker here-Would you like that chris???

And chris gartner the protaganist couldn't say yes-just shook his head out of emotions, out of happiness just uncontrollable ready to come out happiness-

"This part of my life...this little part is called happiness"

The Greed's end

What is the end to the greed of a man who keeps on dreaming bigger and bigger?? He dreamed,he aspired,he acheived some, he couldn't achieve some, he compromised a bit, he lost old interest...he gained a new interest and then another dream-another greed...
Greed truly has no end and so has the agony associated with it. People(including me) often fail to demarcate between greed and ambition, between being greedy and being ambitious-However in any case you lose a lot and you gain a little too.

For an ambitious greedy fellow, Satisfaction is something that you acquire by making your ego happy, happier and happiest. Everytime is a last time, every chance is a last chance...You know it is wrong...But Alas "yeh Dil". How often people won over their hearts...How many of them rule it rather being ruled by it..

Is there a cure to this disease?? I don't really know but you can try to remember some of the precious moments you could have lived but didn't just because you were too greedy/ambitious to achieve a thing. On top of it remember when you were heart broken just because you wanted something despareteky and you didn't get it!!

The worst part of is greed is you never celebrate you achievements rather it just instigates another one. Ah!! the chain reaction is infinite....truly unending.
