are we craving after the material things and forgetting the need to lead a peaceful life?

who is checking us from celebration part? none my dear,it is 'we' ourselves who are creating phantoms of negative syndromes.peace is not in the physical world,it is in our own mind&hear.keep balabce between the two&live life by adhereing to fundamental principles which are embodied in us by birth,there shall never be any disturbance in life. minor inconveniences are there,but peace shall never be disturbed as it is our innate nature,whereas upheavals are caused because of our inter-action with the outside world, are of superficial nature.they are soluble,not incorrigible,dont be cowed down by them,they will pass like passing clouds. live in eternal happiness&peace,these are the attributes of our 'reality' which is the 'reality' of our existence.love.ls.

Wanting more and bigger and better is human nature. It's part of this physical existence we lead. What we forget to do which is essential to our inner peace is to go within on a regular basis. To shut out the rest of the world for a few minutes each day in meditation. I find my life goes so much more smoothly when I take just 10-20 minutes a day to clear my mind and concentrate on nothing, but being in tune with the universe. That's when I find the joy in life. It just comes naturally to me then.

We suffer in our life because of the wrong choices that we make. It's a law of nature. Whenever we work against the law of nature there are adverse consequences and then we abide by the law there are rewards. It's not so difficult to celebrate life if we know the art of happiness.

There was a man from India who said a long time ago , "Life is suffering." Then he figured out a multi-step process for people to follow so that wouldn't be the case anymore. A couple people listened, and the rest of us appear to still be working on it.

People CHOOSE to suffer.
How we handle everyday situations is completely up to us as individuals. We can celebrate if we choose to.
I wake up each morning being thankful I DID ! The rest of the day goes pretty much great after that.

to celebrate suffering is no less a good practuce in life , for suffering offers a challenge and opportunity as well.
and it makes useful sense to season oneself through suffering.purpose underlying is more important than the obvious.

People suffer not 'cos of the fate put in front of them but 'cos of the fate they decide to choose and then later regret for it and blame it on others or the fate itself.I agree that we are helpless at the hands of time, but we are free to choose what we want to enjoy the next moment. To choose HAPPINESS LIES WITHIN US.

without the two extremes - how do we draw comparisons and make meaningful decisions? up to each one of us to "get the balance right" - unfortunately some ppl never do. bad experiences, if we think about them, always teach us something and hopefully make us grow so we can fully appreciate the good ones and celebrate what we have and who we are.

Suffering is part of life. Without suffering life will be meaningless. There is a quote here "Suffering purifies the soul".

In my humble opinion, it is because everyone wants a "peaceful life" by living a "passive life".
