The best thing that happened on July 17th, 2011 ( Post 24 )

"The best thing that happened today was realizing one of the obvious truths of life that money does not play as big a role as we think in making us happy or unhappy. After a very long time since I started working, I have been going through a  phase of being "broke" which means no shopping, no movies at PVR's and no dinners at fancy restaurants but I realized that I am not unhappy at all. In fact some of the most depressing times of my life have been when I had loads of money around. All I really need to make "me" happy is something worthwhile to work towards, good food, good books, good friends and good conversations and some travel plans in the kitty! What I hope to do is to maintain all that really makes me happy and live life the way my parents taught me to.. High Thinking and Simple Living!"
