Okay...this is a post inspired from here, which in turn is borrowed from here
Happiness is...
....Meeting up with close friends after a long gap.
....Memory of the time spent with late grand-mother and great-grand-mother
....The smell of the mud during and just after the first rains.
....Realizing that dearest darling sister has become big and mature enough to be a mommy.
....Seeing the excitement on mom's and dad's faces when they search for their daughter-in-law for their eldest son.
....Eating pav-bhaji laden with lots of cheese and butter.
....Achieving something close to impossible, something which everyone has said is a foolish thing to do.
....Not committing a mistake which was already made under similar circumstances.
....Passionately describing the story of a favourite movie to other friends who havent seen it.
....Venti-Wet-Capuccino-with-extra-shot from Starbucks.
....Feeling proud about the phenomenal improvement shown by a dearest brother in academics.
....Talking to Nana-nani (maternal grand parents) about their younger days on a Saturday afternoon.
....Stepping into your own house which you bought with your own hard earned money.
....Distributing laptops, T-shirts, perfumes bought from the US for your dearest loved ones.
....The thought of owning a house on the beach.
....Visiting siddhi-vinayak mandir.
....Listening to your favourite RJs on the Radio.
....Seeing an empty road on a strech which always has a traffic jam almost everyday.
....Driving a BMW or a Mercedes.
....Seeing old photos of when you were a baby.
....Watching the Indian cricket team defeat Australia in Australia.
....Falling off to sleep knowing that there's no work tomorrow.
....Hugging a near and dear one tightly.
....Removing shoes and socks after having come from work and feeling the coldness of the floor hitting your leg.
....Getting a compliment.
....Blogging trying to remember nearly every happy moment. :-))
Alas! Happiness cannot be described in a single blog post.

I didn't know you were a pav bhaji guy, Rama. Well, I share that with you. Loads of cheese and butter too. Next time we meet for lunch or dinner, let's skip the bigger joints and settle for a cheese pav bhaji, what say?
Btw, I can think of a couple more you could have added to that:
>>Buying myself my a state of the art digital camera.
>>Seeing Dad's face when I gifted him a car.
Hmmmmm?
It is always the small things that warms a heart! You are right on the money!

:-] you were right on some. You a maja family guy. am sure all girls in bombay wud be loving to have a piece of you... :-)
Happiness is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But if you turn your attention to other things, It comes and sits softly on your shoulder.
-anon.
