This new
song Mujhe chod do mere haal pe, Zinda hun yar kaafi hai… (Leave me on my
own, I am alive and it’s enough), reminded me of the very quote widely
attributed to Keanu Reeves, ‘Other people need happiness to live,
but I don't.’
So, what do
we need to live. Scientifically we need energy from food to be
eaten by mouth (or injected if you are a vegetable), supplied to stomach to be digested
into some sluggish thing on one side generating calories and other protein,
minerals etc and on the other hand – faecal material (again, if you are not a
vegetable); the calories provide energy, minerals, vitamins etc help organs
working – like maintaining health of skin, color of nails and tongue, producing
adrenaline, testosterone, estrogen and other less sexually needed
hormones, helping eyes and brain and ears and other senses sense the emotions
and calculate miscalculate the events resulting into sudden outbursts of
hormones controlling emotions and turning sane into insane (and vice versa
for a minor cases, may be in ppm-people per million), and many other sensory
non-sensory things to sit, stand, walk, hike, run…sex, manipulate, reproduce….and
also shit!
Then where
comes the Happiness? Probably, probably-coz it’s what I think and
I haven’t done any survey on it, it’s that Indian masala to our art-movie
like lives that separates it from other animal’s or may be
vegetables. That means, if you are not Happy – you are a vegetable?
Well, but
we do like vegetables, don’t we?
