What travelling feels like?

We live in a world where your life is not measured by your happiness but it's measured by your success. Let me be more specific how much you earned. Nobody cares weather you are happy or not.
We all are engaged in the race of achieving something, we don't know what we do when we get it.
Instead of doing something that makes us happy, we do things that makes us successful.
Just think for a moment.

"What would you do with that success that doesn't makes you happy?"

Recently I was exploring Spiti Valley (Himachal Pradesh) there I saw a small village. 7-8 houses are there only.  No electricity, no road not much connected with the developed area. I was thirsty because I was walking from a very long time. suddenly a lady came to me and 

asked, "Son, do you want water?" 

 I said "Yes Please".

She invited me in her small hut, introduced me to her family and gave me water with some fresh fruits for my journey. She asked me nothing and get back to his work in her small garden with her kids.

I stayed there for more than an hour. Recovering my breath and observing their activities. 

What I was observing was that. If you compare there life with our city life they have nothing. But still they are so capable of creating what they want or need for there survival. Most important they are happy with there life. You can tell this by looking at there faces. There faces reflects the happiness of there soul.

What I had learned from them?
Happiness lies in the "minimalism". keep your circle small and strong.
do things that makes your soul happy. And understand materialistic things can only give you temporary happiness.

All I learned because of my travelling. Travelling helps you to explore and experience what the world is offering to you.
Keep Learning - Keep Travelling.
