The pursuit of happ'y'ness

By any standards, I dare say I still see myself in the category of those who keep wondering "what exactly happened?". Somehow the speed of evolution seems to have crossed the limits set by my mind based on my immature beliefs which sometimes allow me to think that "Sab moha maaya hain" and nothing is going to change the way it is changing. Everybody has his/her own task cut out and everybody is doing it with utmost honesty. Be it evil or be it good, they do it and nobody can ever stop them, otherwise someone would have won by now, either evil or good. The best we can do is to take the side of good and do whatever possible and encourage others to join on our side. Its all a mind game. Nothing happens in the outside world. All that happens is inside our minds. The cycle of change is not a real cycle, it is a virtual one. It will stop only with the end of the world. You set something right and something else goes wrong. Rather, it changes, that is why the current processes do not work for that change and that is called "wrong"? Then we change the processes to make it "right", and by then something else gets outdated. If we could stop the time whenever we are happy, we would be happy forever. But, till now there is no technology which has been able to stop time. It keeps on running, and hence the things change. So, the ultimate solution would be to somehow stop time, which is not an easy task. Because the time has got the highest stamina than that of any living cell on this earth. It has been ticking since ages and will keep on doing that for ages. Is that also a mind game? What if we could stop the ticking of time in our mind? What if we stop the ticking of time in our mind at the moment we are happy? Will we stay happy forever after that? But, what is happiness and when is someone supposed to stop time? Are you not happy at present? Why can't you make yourself happy at your own will? Sure you can. If you can stop ticking of time in your mind (which is the hardest task I have ever encountered) why can't you be happy at will? All my such thoughts result in the final solution to all the problems i.e. mind control. By nature, we crave for something we don't have. If we can control our minds then everything will fall in place and we would be happy forever. At least that is what I think.
