Happiness-Anger-Pain-Death-Freedom

Do not be fooled by the title, it may give the post an aura of being highly philosophical, deep and soaked with meaning – but is nothing of the sort – read on at your own risk…

The above probably doesn’t make any sense to you, does it now? Well, honestly it makes little sense to me too. Its one of those things which just pops into your head at 11:24pm and forces you to make a connection. The ramblings of an extremely bored mind is what I call it. A little tip to all those even more bored people reading this – ones mind is an extremely powerful tool. It is under no circumstances to be taken lightly. If you are enjoying a peaceful evening at home and whiling away time, it will spring into action and force you to ponder over something as meaningless as a random string of words. However much to my dismay, unlike a nagging parent, an irritable spouse or an annoying offspring- your mind can not be ignored. The only way to silence is to actually make sense of its nonsensical ramblings. So without further ado, let me put my mind at ease and unravel the mystery of these five rather stochastically chosen words.

Let us take a rational and scientific approach to decipher this mystery. Empirical findings prove that there is 98.56% probability that there is actually a method to the madness. Science breaks down the phrase into its basic elements and puts them under the microscope. In fact if you were to take the first letter of each word, you would get…HAPDF, which means absolutely nothing. Alright, maybe the rational approach to decipher my rather irrational mind wasn’t the best idea.

There is a high possibility that it is relating a story to me. That’s sounds far more plausible then my HAPDF theory. Maybe its warning me against getting a pet of some kind. Though the initial happiness maybe immense, it will only lead to anger and pain – and I shall only get freedom after death, its or mine – which ever comes first. That too is a bit unlikely since my mind has already made sure that I will never adopt an animal by creating all sorts of phobias against them.

Then the next one is probably a warning for future. I may need to use the bathroom urgently and as the pressure builds on my bladder coupled with the non-availability of finding adequate facilities – all happiness fades away. When I do spot an available facility, the anger comes rushing in as someone beats me to it. The pressure is now too much to bear; it forms stitches in my side and results in searing pain. The pain is so awful that the only way out seems to be death – just then I find a vacant cubicle…and freedom…

<>I see you didn’t enjoy my bathroom prediction. Fine, maybe my mind isn’t going to keep me busy with deciphering something as banal as regularising my bathroom habits. Maybe, there is something far more philosophical and deeper to it. Maybe they aren’t just any random five words. Perhaps, they contain the essence of life as I know it. If I embrace happiness and kill my feelings of pain and anger it will lead to spiritual freedom. Nah! My mind isn’t that prolific either…lets not give it too much credit.<>Now that I have exhausted all sensible theories (and the nonsensical ones too), I have narrowed it down to two possibilities, HAPDF and my mind wanted me to actually write this essay. Could it be? Was the ultimate aim this piece of writing? Is this the reason my mind conjured up those string of words? I do believe I have successfully unravelled the mystery. We can now all be at ease, the world has been averted from a disaster it wasn’t a secret encoded message for world domination from Martians. The sole purpose was to write this literary masterpiece…umm…on second thoughts I think I will go with the HAPDF theory….
