Live Life King Size

Everybody has wishes and desires about their life and often dream about how it should be. Living a happy life is more important for us, since happiness is the ultimate directions we have been looking for.

The title of this post justifies the definition about the life and aspirations we have for it. No matter where you are or what you position is, but dreaming big is the natural process, one should not be blamed for that.

But most of us do forget the action part to realize the dream or to make the life a really king size. That does not mean a royal life at all, since that could not be possible. If you’re thinking of material world and material worldliness, the some extent that is right, but not fit for all the occasions.

Living life should be in a direction such – everyday would be a happiest day in the life. And if that is possible then living happily is more truth, and not far from us.

Most of us look the flipside – what we don’t have and give less importance to the blessing we have. In such scenario no one could be really happy, since human wants are unlimited. What we can do instead is the make ourselves happy in all the scenarios and the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, could be very useful to end our desires.

Four Noble Truths
  • All life knows suffering. Nobody gets what they want out of life.
  • The cause of suffering is ignorance and clinging. Wanting it is the problem.
  • There is a way to end suffering. By learning not to want it.
  • This is the way to end suffering:

  6. Right Livelihood Earning a living in a way that doesn’t hurt others.

Practice those and live life king size.
