Why can’t life be smooth?

Well again I am here to discuss something and probably with not so new topic this time.

We all know about it, we all did it; we are still doing it i.e. nothing but competition.

Life has become more of a competition isn’ it?
We all want to have everything which will keep us in the frontline forever in every area.
We have the latest gadgets, the finest car, the best job, highest salary the most luxurious house
in the town but still we are not able to be happy because somebody else has the same thing. Its competition so it is bound that we need to be always one step ahead of everyone.

This is not a case of any particular age group, society or country, it is same for all. Everyone wants every best thing in life and anything less than that not acceptable.

Actually speaking there is nothing wrong in competing with each other to score more marks in study, to have a better life style in the society but as long as its a healthy competition its fine, but if we just wake up every morning with a mindset that we have to compete with each other then don’t you think we will miss all the fun, all the sweetness of life. Why can’t life be smooth and steady?

Why we take ourselves so seriously? I think we can be happy with the best thing that we have rather than being worried and unhappy because somebody else has the same or more.
Why should we do just because others do the same? Why can’t we be different? Why can’t we do things which will make us happy, I think a person who is happy will do a job better than the others.

There is very famous phrase which I believe would be a right fit for this context i.e.




“Life is a journey not a destination”



I think this quote says it all; that we neither should regret upon our past which can’t be changed nor we should worry about future which is uncertain so we better enjoy our life that is this very moment.

We all are born for this journey, we may have to take a different path to reach our destination but we are meant to learn new things in our journey to enjoy it to the most.

  1. Good thoughts but not in sync with the subject title as was expecting a writing on hurdles faced which is making you ask WHY LIFE CANNOT be smooth but when I got in to the article I understood that you are talking about the competitive life , Materialistic happiness & whats fun in life.... which I dont think goes well with the subject. .. But I good write up.. Keep it up.. keep writing such true to life topics and yes there is a lot of room for improvement.. Cheers.
