They didnt understand life

Dec 18, 2011 | Opinions | 3 comments

When I was 5 years old, my mother told me that happiness was the key to life. 

When I went to school they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, and I replied – Happy

They told me I didnt understand the assignment. I told them they didnt understand life

– John Lennon

    Good quote. I first heard it attributed to John Lennon.

    hello,

    this is with regards to an interview you gave to IDR.

    A domain name dispute, more so that dealing with ccTLD .in takes a maximum of three months, under the INDDRP rules

    not forever. thought will pass on the info to you.

    regards

    Can’t agree with this more …. such a simple, yet such a powerful message, and yet so difficult to follow in life. In a Vipassana course, I had a good experience of how the mind and body work w.r.t. to happiness (or the lack of it) and how one can consciously strive to be more happy, peaceful, joyous.

    Cheers
