Bineeta Kharga - Being Happy Really Counts

When you are happy
When you are happy and free
When you feel like you are flying in the air
Like a free birdie.

When no tensions are able to
dampen your high spirit.
When no problems can stop
your way or even come in your orbit.

When the air you breathe
feels calm and fresh.
When whatever you do you feel
yourself breaking free from an enmesh.

Then, you know this change in the track of life
is the result of a new insight
which you develop
only when you see
your beautiful life in a new light

Moments of life can be enjoyed
Whole heartedly only if they are kept light.
And facing all obstacles
with perseverance, patience,
confidence and above all
keeping yourselves intact.

The sorrows always approach us
just like a small dark spot
But slowly start eating us up
like iron wrought.
Initially slow and steady
But later fast
Destroying ourselves
in and out.
Leaving us
with no last resort.

Only if we let ourselves free
we can feel the shadows disappearing
The shadows of anger, distrust, grudge
leaving us and then we can see them fading
In the light of only our strong esteem and confidence
We can enjoy the life’s eternal fragrance.

With all this experiences when we decide
To bounce back in life
With a zeal to fight out all the rife
To face all challenges and taking up all opportunities unforeseen
And to come out with flying colors, WE BECOME SO keen.

Then the voices
From all corners of your heart surmounts
The statement which is now loud and clear
Being happy really Counts…
