We all live a lifestyle. We like to eat our favourite cheese burger at favourite fast food outlet. We wear the best clothes which we can find. We like to read the best books. We keep on changing channels on our television. we like to drive in the best car that is available. You might identify with most of these above, if not you are really happy :)

what is happiness?
Is our lifestyle an very important part of our life and does it keeps us happy.Yes we are addicted with our lifestyle, but we can definately live without it. Then what is happiness, if it does not lie in material items.

It is a state of mind, which we feel when we see or feel what we like. What we like depends on the atmosphere we were brought up in and what was taught to us (or more importantly what we learnt). For me cricket is my favourite game, for some it might be the most boring thing on earth. so likes and dislikes varies from person to person and so does happiness. happiness cannot be measured in any units, we can feel it.

Most important rule is to find happiness in the smallest things like the smile of your kid, love of your mother/girlfriend/wife, try to live each and every moment of your life, as every moment of your life is important.

Technology is very important part of our life and will remain, but we need to spend atleast 30 mintues with self to search within us and we will find all answers we have been looking for.

So here is my second blog post. Its after such a long time, almost two months later.

I would like to write about education system here in India. When I was in school, I studied all the subjects like maths,science, physics, chemistry etc.. etc... Except few topics like maths, english and some others, rest of the topics I found useless which never became useful in my daily life (I doubt that they became useful to others).

No one taught human behaviour in school. Nothing was career oriented. I never cared as I always saw my career with computers, but there were many students who never thought about their future and kept on learning what was taught to them.

Another thing that I hate is teachers who become teachers for the sake of earning. They are not worried about the well being of school children. They will ask the class students to come for extra classes to their house for which they charge extra.Their job is to teach students in the class itself and not to call students seperatly. Education has lost its value and no one is concerned about it.

I request the people who design the education system that please think about the kids future have the curriculum designed accordingly. Teachers should strictly be prohibited from taking extra classes for the students whom they teach in school.

Parents should take a stand and strictly oppose this extra classes policy and should regularly monitor what the teacher is teaching to their kids.
