Lately I have been miffed and confused with the different definitions of happiness around me..Now different people tend to be happy about different things..I amsure that definition of happiness is different for all of us..Some of us might find our salvation in some retail therapy, some in their kid's smile, some in their work,some in spirituality, and lot of people find in power and money..And their are some people who conform to other people idea of being happy and find their happiness in other people happiness..But since when did it become faishonable to equate happiness with money and all things that it can buy..??
For once I am not conformist , nor do I believe in shop till u drop formula of girls of my age.I, infact hate shopping, U know the kinds hopping from shops to shops, malls to malls oblivious of what you want, just waiting for serendipity to happen..That's not my idea of Shopping, i go to shopping when I actually need something, buy it and come back..Being having a traits of a true virgo , i am very choosy too, sometimes I donot buy anything and come back...But some people cannot digest the fact that the girl can act wisely and choosy at the same time..I mean what we girls been relegated to..???You know people actually say things like she is sting, she is miser, wouldnt spent on herself..Oh please dats my dad hard earned money ..Dont I get to choose what i want..and where i need to splurge out his money..May be you didnt think I was being smart or did you..??
And yes the other thing about the money, I am a typical Virgo when it comes to money..I like to have loads of it in my bank..;) You know we like being secured..So when I go to shop, It helps me think rationally ..When I See something ridiculously expensive, like a formal Van Huesen skirt for 4000 bucks, it helps me rationalize..I know my dad will never say "no" to buy it , but i'll buy it only if i'll need it..Because there are times when you like something but you dont have the money to buy it..Then it doesn't matter , whether you need it or not , because u'll always remember having not bought it because u cannot afford it..You know that self pity mode, women are pronge to go into..that's dat..Having money to splurge makes me wiser...:) :)
I like to spend my dad's hard earned money my way..:P And that actually makes me happy and wiser..:P
For me buying useless things/ useful things is not equals to happiness...I find happiness in buying my favourite books in original paper work, in buying books on sale where every books costs Rs 100..And i am infact happiest if i get some lazy time to lie down in my bed and read that book..I am happy when I spend time with DH and my family, cracking PJ's or playing with Riddu, my nephew, And i love to travel, that is in our genes..:P My dad too prefer too spend his hard earned money on a week's vacation over buying expensive gifts like Diamonds or pearls for Mom, but its vice versa for Mom, she find her salvation in Her Diamonds...ugggh, Mom!!!But that doesnt mean i am averse to all good things in lyf...Its all about the "rush" people experience when they shop..I am just not like that..Materialism is not my idea of happiness..
People , i am not here to act all siantly, but i just wanted to figure out what makes me happy and my idea of happiness...U people also need to think out what makes U happy to stay happy..
**Stay Happy**
