J: Hey Sam! How is your new job? I hope it's resulting into bright flying colours!
S: As usual you are so right Jenny. My new job is excellent and my income is making my life a wonderful one!
J: Okay. That's cool. But I have noticed that there are dark circles below your eyes. Hectic schedule? U never had dark circles.
S: I have a full time job. Anyways to be a wealthy guy, you got to work hard.
J: (Pause) So no time for family?
S: It's impossible! How can I have lot of money then?
J: (Smirking) Ur happiness as an income is so low! No peace!
S: (Perplexed) What are you trying to say?
J: Work is good. But over load is not good for health. Though you have lot of money, your income and expenditure is not satisfactory, as what you are gaining as income is sorrow and your expenditure is happiness! You are not permitting the river of peace to flow in your city of mind!
S:(Irritated) So should I just stay at home and sit like a jobless freak?!
J:(Smiling) No, of course not. To do your job well is your duty, not a punishment. Giving some time to your family would give you happiness. So why not understand it's essence and also give your job the amount of essence that it deserves?
S: Are you talking about having balance in life?
J: Yup! That's what I am trying to say. Balance of job and things that give you happiness.
S: The meaning is sinking in. I will try! I will follow the task which you have given to me, the task where happiness must knock at your door during intervals!
J: You will rock! Economically and emotionally you will be so wealthy!
S: I will urge to be more emotionally wealthy. That's the garden where my soul could always blossom and rest in peace.
J: Yup. But also pass on this message to others. You can be someone's inspiration!
S: Just as you have been mine!
