SATISFACTION IS GRATIFICATION !!
Wow, when this title came to my mind I was stunned where did this pop into my head early in the morning. Now let’s see how this turn out it’s an interesting title at least for me. I am clueless as what am I going to write about satisfaction is gratification.
I shall just go with the flow of thoughts and address Satisfaction first. Let us look at satisfaction and see how gratification fits in.
What is Satisfaction?
Is the fulfillment of our needs or desires. Our needs or desires arise in our heart or mind and the fulfillment of those through the external environment to help brings in Satisfaction into our life.
Let’s look at Gratification!
The art of pleasing the mind or heart for our need or desire the journey of it being enjoyable or pleasurable.
One may wonder why is it being broken and explained so explicitly. Well we need to know the difference the subtle difference which we in our mundane life tend to overlook as we are busy with so many other myriad flow of thoughts and beliefs.
The biggest quest for man is to fulfill his desires and dreams, which would bring him fulfillment and sense of being gratified. This is a huge space we are talking about from work desires, to personal desires man’s wants and needs are always unlimited and we are never happy with what we have achieved or got.
The sense of Satisfaction is Gratification is absolutely amiss in our lives as we are so caught with continuously just saying “ IF ONLY I HAD THIS “. Life keeps on putting us through a
rigmarole of events and yet we never understand that a simple and sustainable life can bring us the the same satisfaction through a pleasurable journey.
Our unhappiness and greed is so much so that we get caught in the vicious world of illusion and many a times we are just so caught up with trying to achieve things which seems feasible and easy to access and as we get closer these tend to slip away or disappear leaving one disappointed and frustrated at the same time.
Setting goals, as per our needs and desires and trying to achieve that can be one task and somewhere down the line what was meant to be a gratified process tends to be lost and we just have resentment and anxiety that we are not satisfied with what we are doing.
When we choose unscrupulous ways, try to be malicious with our thoughts and acts, no matter what we can never have satisfaction nor gratification. Reason being that we are constantly spinning with greed, jealousy, hatred or anger that inner peace and happiness is just no where around. We are so wound up that we do things out of habit not enjoying it nor getting any satisfaction through it.
There can be a whole lot of examples one can give about how we are never satisfied and try to achieve something else which is beyond our limit. Being ambitious is good but being avaricious is not worth anything now isn’t that some food for thought to be ambitious but not avaricious.
One may wonder how can we hold the statement of Satisfaction is gratification when there is so many twist and turns.
Yes, Ofcourse we can hold the statement dear to us and work towards being satisfied with little things of life and letting them being a gratifying experience. Only when we start slowing down and taking in the beauty of life and moving ahead with pure happiness and gratitude can one actually savor the journey and look at it as a gratifying process which brings in satisfaction.
