Be healthy and forgetting, Be blissful

A few days back, one of my friends posted this on his Facebook status,” For a successful life, one only needs a good health and the power to forget.” The more I think of it, the more it hits the truth. The catch-phrase ‘successful life’ is so discussed, yet so arcane, and individualistic, that any claimed erudition on its essentiality is at best a falsified belief. Undeniably though, this whole ethos starts from the self, and the self finds manifestation in good health. And this good health is both physical and mental, which allows an individual to work and enjoy life as it comes. This great state can only be achieved if the person has the ability to forget and forgive the past, however cruel or enticing it might have been. The philosophical import of ‘Living the moment’ can indeed be realized then. All simple …. life deciphered …. Right?
