What is the buzzz all about

 Is India really going to be a super power one day. Will the people of this country ever be happy. Will they have education, health, justice and equal opportunity. Will we be developed nation.

Thomas Jefferson said that life is about pursuit of happiness and the very idea of being happy is different for different people. It can't be talked about in absolute terms. But happiness creates the buzz to explore, ponder and enjoy life. Is enjoyment the purpose of life. I may be bold to say yes, but then all the victims of circumstances and challenges of life would try to prove me wrong.

So instead I would diverge from the topic. I will ask one line. Why are people not happy. 
The answer is expectation. We are always buzzing with expectations about love, money, business, passion, relations etc. If life had no expectations there would be nothing to feel unhappy about. Life is infact empty and meaningless. But then without expectations, is there anything left to live for.
