I think that the need to justify oneself is huge today! One cannot be simply happy or sad or angry or calm. One has to justify every action taken and every emotion felt.
If I am happy today, even in the midst of problems surrounding all over, I have to ask why? I have to ask that why is it that I am not weeping all the time. Is it right for me to be smiling and enjoying the moments? It is good to not ponder solemnly about the troubles all the time? Should I not make a grim face?
And so on…..
But then human mind and emotion is unique because of its unpredictability. Good that it is!
Cheers !
