Do you wish to live life happily?


-Oh, Mr. Joy! You are not to be seen these days?
-Look at this! It’s like the pot calling the kettle black!
I flitter around you day and night
If nothing else, at least spend a few hours in my company
Play and enjoy yourself for a while
Listen to some sweet songs once in a while
But no…!
All that you can see is the important work that needs to be done
You have created such a hullabaloo
As if you only have to run the whole world


I say – if not by other means, at least experience me by having something nice to eat and drink
But no! You find calories in anything that is good to eat
You roam around in good cars only to show off to others
So even there you miss out on the real pleasure, i.e. the joy of driving


-What you are saying does make sense, but what do I do?
-I also have a future to build
Building one’s future is such a habit
That once you have clung onto it
It won’t leave you till your last breath
Now listen to me carefully
If you do not accompany me for a little while every day, then I will become upset
And if I get annoyed
I will not rest until I infect you with a number of mental illnesses
And I won’t spare the body either
I will make sure it is plagued by numerous diseases as well
Bear this in mind, all people suffering from mental and physical maladies
Are bearing the brunt of ignoring me.
