Ah! The tears of unfathomable sadness. Cartman must have found them delicious. After all whatever Scott Tenorman had planned and executed to humiliate Cartman, it was his time to give him the piece of Cartman’s extraordinary brilliance. For those, who lost me from the first use of the word “Cartman”, let me take the liberty of introducing you to Eric Cartman of Comedy Central’s animated series South Park. The show is intended for mature audience, and is famous (I don’t agree with the infamous tag used by wikipedia) for its crude, surreal and satirical dark humor. The above reference was to an exceptional episode “Scott Tenorman Must Die” where in Cartman plans and executes his revenge for getting humiliated time and again by Tenorman. Anyways, no matter how much you like or hate him, I’m not here to write and publicize Cartman. His numerous fans have already made sure that he lives forever.
However, he isn’t the inspiration behind this blog today but it is what he said: “The tears of unfathomable sadness, yummy!” I know I would be branded a sadist for this statement, but I still gather all my courage to write it here: Tears or no tears, there is always an unfathomable sadness in every human being, which comes out time and again. The one and only counter cure is the happiness which is even more deeper than the sadness within. Unfortunately I happened to come across numerous examples, which have nurtured this thought.
In order to explain my point, lets take a group of four people - four healthy, sane and happy homosapiens. Lets name them A, B, C and Z. A’s happiness happens to have a directly proportional relation to a special person X, someone who is dear to heart. The equation is somewhat like:
A’s sadness prevails when X is not there whereas A’s happiness takes over the charge when X is around for comfort. This equation is roughly how I’ll document A’s cheerful self and somber mood.
B on the other hand, possesses a switch to the valve between the two moods. That particular switch controls B’s mood. This switch is however controlled by the weight of what is going around. If we assume that surrounding happiness and sadness form a total of 100% and there is no other mood element present, then
C particularly struggles with the sadness and loneliness these days, and sports a fake happiness to avoid questions like “Why so sad?” The main motif and important task for C these days, is to ward off any such awkward and gloomy questions. Fear of becoming a masochist (A willingness or tendency to subject oneself to unpleasant or trying experiences.) is getting the best out of C. In words of equation:
I know I tried too hard to explain my point and I have performed poorly. But I think you got the point and so now aren't you done reading? Go get me a Sandwich! :P

Switch(B) = :) if %(surrounding :)) > 50

C particularly struggles with the sadness and loneliness these days, and sports a fake happiness to avoid questions like “Why so sad?” The main motif and important task for C these days, is to ward off any such awkward and gloomy questions. Fear of becoming a masochist (A willingness or tendency to subject oneself to unpleasant or trying experiences.) is getting the best out of C. In words of equation:
Mood(C) = Fake :) where C == !Alone
:( where C == Alone
Z has a slightly different case. Unlike the rest of the three, Z finds happiness in small gestures. The policy is when sad, do something to take your mind off it… do something impulsive, something stupid or something different, something random to brighten up your life, to get that special sunshine. All in all, Z’s events can be drafted as::( where C == Alone
When Z == sad, do Z = random();
No matter how much I try to form an equation for Z’s case, I fail each and every time. This is the best I can do to let you guys know about Z. Probably, one can’t create an equation for happiness, one just stumbles onto it while doing random stuff.I know I tried too hard to explain my point and I have performed poorly.

Nice one ....
The fun would be in finding out who the above four are. :)
There can be cases within the A- X relation...when X starts to make A sad !!
Happens all the time isnt that !

@Abhay, Tejo: :D
@Pri: Nopes, not with the A mentioned here, X always makes A happy... Just to be clear, all the four examples are very specific and not at all generalized.
