Welfare

It is collectively, mutually, jointly, separately and individually our primary as well as continuous and ultimate duty to kepp all of us from birth to death pleased, contended, satisfied and happy.

Duty if not legal, it may be moral, religious, social and so forth.

What are the various ways to achieve this noble objective?

Whether the means adaopted should justify the end?

For example it is not equally easy to keep all persons pleased. Similarly, means adopted, efforts put in, time taken may vary from person to person, from time to time, from situations to situations to get persons contended and pleased.

Contentment is a relative concept and with the same things, with the same efforts, same results may be obtained. In otherwords with the same means adopted with different persons, different results may be achieved.

Like contentment, satisfactions is also a relative state of mind. While many get pleased and reman satisfied but some never get pleased and satisfied at all. Happiness is also the end product and result of contentment and satisfaction.

Even an individual has a great role to play to keep himself contended and satisfied and to remain happy by slef help to the extent possible when the due and deserving help is not readily forthcoming or at times one does not want to avail such help for the reasons best known to him.

From birth to death all of us have various capabilities by virtue of the position we take up, the work we perform, relations we have develop and sustain and we in all these capacities, have to act, perform, work and fulfil this role. Throughout our life always we should act well and perform the role well. During this period not only we should make it a point to remain pleased and contended, statisfied and happy, we should also see that the others with whom we deal, work and live also feel the same way.

It may look strange, if one when says that he lives for himself. It may appear still more strange if a mother says that she lives for herself. No one can live for himself without depending on other people or other living beings. For in this universe depending on others is a must and may be considered a universal rue. It is more so among the members of the society.

If one says he lives by himself, it necessarily means he has to exploit others, for this purpose. Exploitation may be the least in some cases, but it cannot be altogether avoided or eliminated.

Dependence is essential not only at indiviual level, but also at family level, joint family level, socielty level, village level, state level, country level and even global and universe level, for it is a universal rule.

Similarly in ones earnings, apparently or by implications they are meant for the benefits of himself and others who are dependent upon him.
