see that is why having good morals and blind faith in something more powerful than us .i.e God is so important for our sanity and well being, and ofcourse people should stop living according to others standards but thier own. I think all human beings want to live simply, all the show and luxury is to impress others who can never be satisfied no matter what, they are like bottomless pits, so better to just live ones life simply and happily, this will make all those superficial folks out there more jealous and envious BE SIMPLE AND BE HAPPY THEN SEE HOW LIFE WILL CHANGE FOR ALL OF US :)))))))))))))))))))))

if it were left up to us we would happily dose off till the afteroon and work only over the weekends, but why people work thier arses off every single day is cuz they have to achieve and gain that ultimate success which is all societies creation, and bunch of non-sense. i think people should not compete with anyone, i believe competition is the root of all evil , it creates unnecessary tension and conflict between all brothers and sisters, friends, family etc etc . so set your own standards for success and happiness and good riddens to all those people who think you are a looser just because you refused to live up to thier warped and twisted standards of success and acheivement. more power to such a person who could care less about superficial sstandards of living and instead lives a wonderful and peaceful life in some nice little village, just content with the simple things in life, and who aspires to achieve knowledge and learning for the sake of it and not to impress others or get a hi-tech job in some firm resulting in constant headache and popping prozac pills or taking sleeping pills every night.

#tipu. thanx for the compliment i really appreciate it but no one is perfect. it is the society that decides who is perfect and who is not. but thanx for saying that i look perfect but frankly i dont think so ;)

Haroon

Another helping suggestion. Have an affair on the side. (or a second wife)

Maybe this will give a purpose and a meaning in life.

And accept the accompanying disturbance, chaos, turmoil and confusion in family life.

Still better than dying!

#22 NO HAVING AN AFFAIR IS NOT BETTER THAN ANYHTING, IT COULD BE FATAL AS WELL, REMEMBER ``FATAL ATTRACTION`` IF NOT THE WIFE THE GIRFRIEND WILL KILL YOU OUT OF JEALOUSY
