Quality or Quantity!!!!

I was just havin a conversation with my colleague and she happened to mention that we all work towards money and I was beggin to differ with her and thatz when I said I would rather live my life Qualitatively rather than Quantitatively...

I mean look at it, end of the day all of us or atleast most of us work towards a goal and usually its driven by monetary benefits or the end result would be if we earn so much we can achieve so much. But my question to all of you is when you look back, do you realize you wasted your life tryin to achieve somethin which is monetary and failed to enjoy the simple pleasures of life???

But yeah I wouldn't blame anyone for doin so with their lifes, simply coz the so called society judges you on what have you achieved in life and for cent percent it would be what you've achieved monetarily and usually it ends up bein the scale of measure.. How unfortunate.. :-(

Well I've always told myself and continue to believe that I rather enjoy the simple pleasures of life rather than get into the mad rush of makin all the money and not stoppin to enjoy life.. I definitely believe in have a Quality life rather than bein measured by the society with respect to my monetary achievement.. Hell I know few would say this guy is just makin himself excuses but let me tell ya.. I find more gratification in makin a difference to others life rather than glorifyin my life with all that money can buy..

Also I believe, if you believe in somethin strongly, it would happen.. One reason why love to spend time with folks who are passionate about what they want to do with life.. simply coz they know that its the best way to live their life and not give into the whims and fancies of so called Society.. Agreed so called society is a necessary evil but again it depends on how much of it should be influenced by them..

Lastly all I've got to say is, Hey stop, look what you doin with your life.. is it really worth it???? if not stop and learn to enjoy simple pleasures of life.. go get out and get drenched in the rain.. scream or howl or just dance with two left legs.. who cares as long as YOU are happy!!!! Thatz what I called Quality... and remember money can never buy you LOVE!!!!! and be it from anyone but it just can't buy it!!!!!!!

Bon Weekend and see you on Tuesday :-)

  1. Money is external. It is earned ( or inherited !!) and can be taken away by yourself, others, events,calamities...
    Happiness is internal - no one can take it away from you (except yourself). You don t earn it or seek it - It is already there within you.

    The popular saying is happiness is a result of a 'quality ' life. But i trust it is the other way - If you are happy, quality flows into your life, work, hobby...anything. Happiness is fundamental and should come first. Everything else follows.

    'Society' is still not evolved and as you put it, confuses money with happiness [ More money means more happiness, no money means no happiness - as stupid as that]. This attempt to simplify happiness by 'quantifying' it has actually complicated it :). You are exactly right - Instead of letting money come to them, people end up chasing it - In many cases the chase never ends till death :).

    Well, I m starting a blog within your blog I guess, I shold stop, heheh
