Fear of Feeling Happy

You might not feel this always but it happens. In the midst of happy moments and when everything is going great for you, you suddenly start anticipating something unpleasant. You won’t find any real reason for this feeling. Cherophobia!

It is very common in movies to show an accident or some tragedy after few scenes with lots of laughter or a happy song. In fact, we almost always predict it. You might have seen elders pray to God to keep the family away from sorrow throughout the day when the day begins with few good things.

Why is this fear? Those who relate happiness with unproductively  or distraction may feel fear because it would lead to mistakes and failures. Maybe, though we always wanted to be happy, we intuitively know that life is designed to be a mix of all and so we naturally expect something unexpected to happen.

Anyway, the moment you suspect your happiness, you are sure to lose it.

Stop & Listen

Source: Email forward A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousand of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule. A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work. The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk tur...
