A sudden discussion with one of my best friends sprouted some thoughts on what one needs to feel satisfied with one's life. I've always had a standard definition for what I want in my life.... I just want to be happy. The problem is, I need a lot of things to make me feel that way. For starters, a good job, one which gets me a fat paycheck every month, along with satisfactory work, good colleagues, a nice boss...and the works. Most people keep telling me that's a lot to ask for! And given my current situation, I have to agree.
The ironic thing is, a few months back, I used to LOVE my work. Excellent work, a supportive boss, friendly co-workers..Its a whole different story now!! Anyway, I think I'm digressing from the point...
So, getting back to being happy. I wish there was a formula for it. Anyway, apart from work, I think good family support and a healthy dose of good friends should do the trick. Seems pretty easy to achieve. I mean, we all have friends, our parents would really never not support us and how difficult is it to find a decent job (especially when you have a solid education backing you up)? Turns out, its not that simple.
I'm still figuring it out for myself. Don't have a lot of concrete answers yet, but I'm happy I've started getting a few things on track.
