Satisfaction
Satisfaction word itself is great. If we go through its root word than we will get SAT & SATIS meaning enough. It comes from the Latin sat, enough and satio, more than enough & overfill. Now the question arises is who is satisfied. I know this question is very complicated. We will find many saying iam satisfied but as far as i know no one can say that he or she is satisfied. As being hundred percent satisfied is undefined. We cannot be satisfied fully as hundred percent satisfactions don’t exit. Of course we can measure the level of satisfaction. We can elaborate in language of chemistry, saturated solution and unsaturated solution. Unsaturated solution can dissolve more solute where as saturated will dissolve no more solute particles. We can compare unsaturated as unsatisfied and saturated as satisfied solution. Unsaturated solution is active whenever it gets solute it will dissolve it or try to increase the level of saturation. Whereas saturated is inactive it will not take more solute particle thus no action. It is already saturated. The question arises here is satisfaction good or bad? Answer of this question is controversial some will say it is good some will say it is bad. If we take the side saying good than we will argue that satisfaction brings happiness. We will be happy in little what we have. Worldly pleasure will not influence us. We will be self-sufficient. No requirements or very less requirements. In this world having satisfaction is great achievement. But as I said that practically full satisfaction cannot be obtained just level of satisfaction is measured. The more satisfied you are the more happier you will be. It is also said “Santosam param sukham” , But the point here is that satisfaction also has its demerit it is clear from above discussion of chemical solution saturated/satisfied has no action left to be done. They will remain inactive. Inactivity leads to exhaustion of our talent. It also brings laziness, it rust our brain, brings negativity. For example think a person who was a clerk in Government department and after hard labour competed IAS exam. Had he been satisfied with his earlier achievement he would never had competed IAS exam. So it is also said that man should not be satisfied. It is our dissatisfaction, desire, wants that today we have discovered many unimaginable things. The greater the level of dissatisfaction the greater passion to do remains. Lots of points can be given in favour and against of satisfaction and some of us might remain confused. Finally what we can say is satisfaction and dissatisfaction both is required but we need to balance it. One who balances both lives happy, peaceful and leads the journey of life successfully.
