Happy World



Sometimes, we know something but we still need a trigger to do it. The same thing happened with me recently. I just watched the movie 'Jai Ho'. Don't judge me by my choice, Salman Khan fan here :P
Now about the movie: one thing I loved the most was the concept that says instead of saying thank you to anyone, just help 3 other people and tell them to do the same. This is what I loved about the whole movie.
We people are very compassionate about everything. We do get sad when we see someone struggling, when we see that they are not even able to have a meal or not fortunate enough to get the basic necessities. Yes, we do get sad when we see someone becoming the victim of anything bad, when something very wrong is happening. It could be anything, accident, a fight, unfair system etc. But the point is are we doing anything about it! No. 
We got a heart, we got feelings, so we are supposed to feel bad. But we will be the good humans if we try to make a change. One man can actually make a difference, as the movie says and shows. 
I believe we have the power to make a change. We just need to realise that and stop taking our powers too casually. We have to take a break from our busy lives once in a while. No, we don't even need to do that . We just have to do whatever good we can do on our way. 
We have been so involved in getting everything that we forgot that real happiness is satisfaction. If a man can'e be satisfied with what he has, he can't be happy ever. The key is be happy with what you have now and then try to work for better. The satisfaction we can get when we see the smile on someone's face because we just helped them is happiness. To know that the other person has one less thing to worry about now because you helped him is happiness. When you know that you just did something good is happiness. 
We have some days when everything seems too bad, when we feel like it can't get worse, think about the people who are orphan, or handicapped or unemployed or unloved. So instead of worrying about our problems in those blue days just help the needy ones and trust me you will forget your pain.
If we can just try and do a little from our side, we can surely make a lot of change. Think about it. If this chain continues unbroken, how many people would have a smile on their face. We help 3, they help 9, and they help 27. Lets make a resolution to help anyone whenever we have a chance to do so. There are so many who need someone to help them, lets be the one for them. Till now we must have avoided some critical situations, we may have avoided helping anyone out of the fear of getting into trouble. Lets resolve to not do that now onwards. Let us get together for a better life, for a better place to live in, where people are not just compassionate, they are good enough to lend a helping hand. 
When you see someone begging for food, help them. When you see someone crying, provide emotional support to them. When you see someone in trouble, be useful. Help can be in any form, but I just want you to do good, be good. Be a better person. Be the one who is capable of making someone smile. Let us all together make it a better world, not a place where we can't be sure if something bad happens to us or anyone, no one would be there. You know what it could be just a very small gesture from your side but it can be a new hope, a new life for someone. You may be thinking that you just helped that lady with her heavy baggage, not a big deal but she may be tired of the fights going on in her house, and is fed up of her life but this small help may have made up for it. You may have just helped that blind guy cross the road, but may be that guy has lost all the hopes and you may have worked as the new ray of hope for him.
Every small thing we do shows that we care and being cared can do magic. When you know that someone out there cares about you, want to see you smiling, want you to be happy can be something a man can live for. So next time you have a chance of offering for anything as minute as a smile, please do. Because you never know what it can do to other, how much happiness it can bring to other person. For me if you are happy and if you are capable of making someone else happy, then you have conquered the world.
I can see the happiness in the eyes of that house-keeping lady when I generally ask her if she had her meal, I can feel the blessing in the greetings of that gate-keeper when I just wish them good-afternoon. I can see the smiling eyes of some kid on the streets when I smile at them. Words of care can make it so good, just imagine how much worth a kind gesture would be. 
It is a very small world, what you do today is going to come back to you someday soon. So, if you are doing good, trust me, soon you will get it back. 
I want to see everyone around me happy. I want to see people smiling. I want to assure that all is good for them. I am going to try, I am going to work for it. Happy World is what I want and dream about. Because we all deserve to be happy. :)
In the end thank you to everyone who has helped me and made me smile and made me feel good in those tough days. I am going to help 3 people for every help I got. :)
