What actually we live for?

More often the question crops up my mind, that what is the penultimate thing in life that everyone lives for.

Is it

1). The self illusion of being better than the rest

Most people i have come across in my life live for fulfilling and thereby enhancing their self illusion that they are the best, in whatever sense anyone can think of.

They eat, drink, sleep and talk with that illusion in mind only, as if there is nothing more in this world except the expectation of listening to their own praise through people.

2). The strong desire to have a companionship in life

Some people though they are very few, actually live in hope of finding a perfect companion with whom their life could be journey worth traveling. But in pursuit of that, they forget making friends with whom your journey till finding that illusive companion can be precious and something to cherish about.

3). To work only towards achieving such a big happiness that everyone should be envious f

In pursuit of searching for a bigger happiness, we often tend to ignore the millions of small instances which we can treasure throughout our life.

Infact, there is no perfect or big happiness. Its actually a cumulative outcome of those smaller instances only, which we often ignore.

  1. in my opinion, The most desired thing in life is happiness. Few of us live to satisfy our desires, some wants to make the people whom they love to be happy. its the happiness which all of us wants. but mainly it depends what is the thing which makes us happy, and we spend our whole life in order to search of happiness... :)
