Strange isn't it, but as we grow older we tend to sway more and more towards postponing our happiness for the sake of others. It could be a well- deserved one hour nap, a quick destressing trip to the parlour, that book we've heard so much about but not read, that off-White kurta you've always wanted to wear with the bandhini dupatta.  Yet somewhere, duties towards spouse, kids, family, extended family reigns over the need to grab that one tiny speck of happiness. And then you either start eroding or melting into the common happiness pot for all. Where does that leave YOU?
