Life a...Labyrinth

Some times life seems like a labyrinth....a complicated enigma that wants to be unfolded..discovered, explored!! and we start perfectly well when we are born by opening our eyes a little at first and then taking it all in like drinking it all inside.  Thisthirst to explore is an unending struggle to learn new things. A wonderful curiosity that leads us to open new doors and learn it all. Why then after we grow up that quest of learning stops and in its place we develop that horrendous hunger for greed.Instead of learning more we run after acquiring and hoarding materialistic and worldly things to satisfy our egos.It is only when we are close to our dying age that we understand the labyrinth or the meaning of this life created for us for a short while. By then our time is up and what remains behind is a battered and worn body and a house full of materialistic acquisitions that are either distributed or thrown out. Very few remain as long lost memories..I just wish we solve this labyrinth much earlier and find happiness in small things of life. Things dont bring happiness its the little things that give us that joy.. a smile, a child,a thank you, a hug..satisfaction of helping some one, being polite and kind at heart...there are so many little things to me others happy and in return make us happy and contended.Because in the end all that matters is self contentment and contentment should be inside our soul!!
