The world that was left Far behind

There was a time that I used to wake up in the morning and I remember those Birds Chirping outside and MY world used to look so beautiful. And the nights filled with sparkling stars, and those shooting stars. People used to enjoy those nights, sitting under the moonlight, talking to each other. Sharing themselves with each other. No worries were there, and everything used to be so refreshing and just so Perfect. A small wound used to be so big, a scratch on your knee was a big deal for everyone, a small head blow was a call for lots of Hugs and Love. Everyone used to back you up even with the small hurdles because they had this pumping organ inside which at that time was more than that. It was a heart and it had feelings. But now, its something complicated. Its not the same anymore. Birds don't chirp anymore, Nights aren't filled with stars anymore. Life is way different now. Everyone is so busy with their lives. They don't care about anyone now. Wounds are not wounds now. Scratches are nothing at all. Nobody has time to hug you or make you feel loved. And most of they're not Happy now, not even with their own lives. They prefer Pleasure over feelings. Life never works this way. Pleasure is temporary and that's the reason for them being unhappy. All they care about is money 'cause they think Money can buy Happiness. Believe me, its not the Money that buys you Happiness, 'cause Happiness was never ready made. Its your action that buys you Happiness. And gives you an inner peace and satisfaction and a soothing feeling which Money was never able to give you. The secret of life is, keep your desires to a limit and things will work out for you. In fact LAO TZU summed it all up in a single, yet a heavy sentence, "Manifest Plainness, Embrace Simplicity, Reduce Selfishness, Have few Desires". This line really says it all, its the secret to Happy life. But no body on earth can move their hearts. They are so turned on by Money. But they don't get it. They just keep on destroying their life, inner peace and everything. And its a race, you win if you make others unhappy. Human nature is way too cruel. Human is the wisest of living things but this era doesn't have any Humans left. Now when we look backwards, in the end it makes us believe in backward.
