happiness

-
Happiness, is merely a state of mind; you decide what makes you happy and what doesn't make you happy. It's basically up to you.
Happiness can even be found in small things like giving chocolate to a small kid or maybe by giving a set of bangles purchased from a street hawker. The child would be happy on the fact that someone got me something, moreover as someone gifted me something.
It's not necessary to have money to make you happy and it's even necessary to have money to make you happy. A street vendor, if given a 2000 rupee note would be happy as he would be stress-free from work. But giving the same amount of money to a rich kid might not make him filled with the same level of happiness, and might even return it back to you. 
It's not necessary to live in a penthouse with all the lavish facilities like a personal swimming pool or library with french windows that will make you happy, even living in a small house can make you happy. One can also be sad living in a lavish house.
Happiness comes from within you. It's you who decides what makes you happy. You can not change the situation but you can surely adapt and adjust to it, and find yourself happiness.
You need to analyse your current situation and decide what makes you happy. For an instance, you only have enough money to buy yourself a sandwich but you want to eat a fancy buffet breakfast. In such a situation u need to find happiness in a sandwich but that doesn't mean that you stop working hard and be satisfied with what you have. You need to work hard on yourself to even experience the happiness received while eating a buffet. Happiness is not the same for everyone even if two people are dealing with similar situations.
For some kids, both of their parents are working, and they don't get to spend enough time with them. This, for some children would be an unhappy event, because they don't get to spend quality time with their family. Whereas, in some situations, if the children and the parents don't get along well, this would be a better event, as they don't spend much time together. 
One should consider the timing of events in making oneself delighted. The way you react to different situations also plays a very important role in the amount of happiness your feel, and the people in your surrounding receive. 
Happiness is also related to your satisfaction, like solving sudoku which you were trying to solve for the past 15mins.
Finding satisfaction in things shouldn't be an explanation in stop making advancement, once you complete solving a sudoku puzzle of level 1 shouldn't imply that you should be stuck in that specific puzzle of that specific level and you resolve it over and over again. You need to move on to the higher level of the puzzle and try solving that...
After all, Badhti ka Naam Zindagi!

Friendship

friendship is the state of being friends (according to dictionary meaning) Friendship isn't about who knows more about you or cares more about you; It is moreover about who matches your vibes and who makes you feel at home, whether you are in some hostel surrounded by jungles. A home is where family and friends are. Friendship isn't about seeing each other every day or talking all the time; it's more about the feeling that nothing has changed even if you guys aren't just in close contact with one another. The length of time you have known someone or the amount of lengthy discussion you share doesn't define the depth of your friendship. This depth is interpreted by how close you are to each other and how much you understand about each other just by facial expression or some infer in body language. Friendship is more than just sharing your tiffin or catching hold of someone when one is falling; It is also about asking for treats and making the other fall just for a hi...

Lippan Kaam (Mud work )

O ne of the best feelings is retracing the path to your origin, feeling close to your ancestors, your culture and art. Art defines a lot about what we were back then, how far we have progressed and how much we have deviated from our heritage. Being born in a Kutchi family I was introduced to the art of mud painting, also known as lippan kaam or chitter kaam. Mud painting is supposed to be one of the traditional forms of art in which an artist conveys his ideas through vivid shapes and designs which he creates by using mud or clay. Originality of lippan kaam lies in adding colourless or white and small round-shaped, triangle-shaped or diamond-shaped mirror pieces being added to the work. Lippan work can be found on walls of bhungas ( mud houses ), which can normally be seen in Kutch. I started by taking MDF board and my aim for the day was to try making shapes from clay and water. The clay was smelly and after gaining further knowledge about it I came to know that it is made up of two m...

Beauty

 With time, the definition of beauty has been changing. Where once plump and curvy was considered beautiful, today thin and willowy is. Definition of beauty changes from country to country.  Dark hair and dark skin might be beautiful to one and blonde hair and blue eyes to another. For some beauty is the appearance of a person and for some, it goes as deep as the soul. It is true when they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder as every individual has a different meaning of it.  To me beauty is based what you think about yourself. It goes hand in hand with your self confidence , with self love and the way you present yourself.  Self love does seem a little selfish, but we as a society need to realize that in order for us to be able to love someone else, we need to be able love ourselves first because you can't pour tea from a kettle to fill a cup which is itself empty. Self love is about setting boundaries and respecting yourself at all times. Its about the courage...
