Joy Of Pursuing Science

It' s the eternal quest of man and will always be, ie search for permanent happiness. Well the nature is so balanced, it permits happiness only as an interval in between pain. Nevertheless the ways in which man achieve happiness, i would like to classify them as sensuary, intellectual and subtle.
We turn happy when we eat good food, have nice nap or indulge in sensuary pleasure, i rate them as sensory, for they last till the moment we indulge in them and are transient in behaviour. A bit above this lies happiness that we get when we involve ourselves in playing games/sports or any adventurous activites. For this involves challenging the physical limits set by our body. Quite high above this activity lies the long lasting happiness, which one gets when one involve in creating out of his intellectual ability, which are pursuing Music, Art and Science. For there's greater happiness when we turn our mind onto this activities, for it will help us unleash vast potential hidden in human to flow out at his creative best. The highest state of the mind which experience just not happiness but bliss, is through spiritual experience. But its a path thats tough for the rewards are unlimited and permanent.
Well here i would like to dwell on the fact pursuing my carrier in Science, i would like to mention those incidents that have rewarded me those moments of happiness, which i would like treasure forever. Pursuing Science gives us the oppurtunity to create something nonexistent before, see things come alive before us. There are many occasion that come prior to the situation when things you plan, execute and try to then analyse your result, you realize the very first step in your experiment or sometime may be the last was a mistake forcing you to repeat the whole process once again. This surely test your forberance and patience and those with strong will always began once again with full enthusisasm as if we are testing this for the first time. Failure will always haunt us, till the very limit of our patience. But the happiness when one derive after finally getting the result you expected or something very startling you werent prepared for gives us immense happiness and peace within. This is that moment we all researcher look out for in our lab, while pursuing science our dream.
