Understanding the purpose of life
“The purpose of our lives is to be happy.” — Dalai Lama

Hey everyone! 

Ever wondered or questioned as to why are we so indulged into whatever we are doing and if we are absent-minded while doing something why is that so? What is the prime motive of all this? Is this truly the purpose of why we are given this gift of life, are we coming up to what is expected from us? 

I was traveling back home few days back and during this long journey, I came across some strange phenomenon of questions which turned my thought process completely upside down. These were the questions of human survival evoked when I saw a child of 7 years working on the railway station. When he got his wages/earning, he smiled and his smile was so blissful and soothing. This brief incident made me realize that we are always inclined to happiness, it is more like a need for the human soul.

The purpose of life is to be happy and we are happy when we make sure that our sustenance on this earth is kept away from all the miseries. This sense of contentment is what makes everyone strive for more. I, then, questioned myself as to whether I had the same purpose or was I on the right track or not! I am grinding for a better life, a life where I can easily meet all the basic  necessities and fulfil the desires. 

After all, meeting the animalistic needs is not the only requirement of humans, we have other needs as well and most part of my struggle is for the intellectual hunger that I carry in my brain.
