Be happy Within yourself
Louis went to visit his mentor, Liam , in his
small cabin on the edge of town.
“What do people need to be happy?” Louis asked.
“What do you think?” liam asked back.
Louis thought for a moment.
“I think that if people have their basic needs met, you know,
food and a place to live, and if they are safe from harm and have a job to do,
that should be enough to keep them happy.”
Liam frowned. Clearly he disagreed.
The old man jumped to his feet and marched to the door,
beckoning his young friend to follow him.
They trudged towards a farm that
contained a large barn and as they got closer, Louis could hear an
infernal racket coming from inside.
Liam opened the door and Louis looked inside with
amazement.
He saw row after row of chickens, each of them in their ow
n tiny cages.
Liam looked at Louis and asked pointedly, “Do they
have food?”
“Yes.”
“Do they have shelter?”
“I guess so.”
“Are they safe from foxes and other predators?”
“Yes.”
“Do they have a job to do?”
“They lay eggs.”
“Do they look happy?”
Louis looked closer at the hens. He didn’t really know
what a happy chicken looked like. Do they smile? Can a chicken even
be happy?
Before he could answer, Louis said, “Come with me.”
They left this farm and walked down a long lane towards another
property.
On the second farm was a large field, full of chickens.
They weren’t cooped up, they were foraging around in the field
pecking for food.
“Do these chickens look happy?” asked Liam
It seemed like an odd question, but Louis inspected them
anyway and it occurred to him that there was a different atmosphere here.
These hens seemed to be in a more natural state and they seemed more
chickeny as a result.
“Perhaps,” Louis responded, not wanting to commit.
“Of course they are, don’t be so absurd,” retorted the old man.
“Here’s the point. Both sets of hens have food, shelter and a job to
do. The first ones are confined to a small area where all that they can
do is exist, but these hens, these beautiful birds, even though they are more
exposed to the foxes and hawks of the world, are have an opportunity to really
live.”
“We all have a serious choice to make,” liam continued ,
“We can either live like battery hens, in a confined, seemingly safe existence,
where we expect that everything will be brought to us, albeit in very small
portions, or we can break free and live like free range chickens, foraging
around in a less predictable, slightly more dangerous world and truly
live. You asked about happiness before. You can’t be happy if
you’re merely existing, you have to live, son.”
Louis understood it.
