The story "Happiness and Gloomy" consists of a heartfelt birthday letter from an uncle, Valibhai Musa, to his niece residing in the United States. He expresses his prayers for her worldly and spiritual success on her birthday, using the metaphor of June 21st, the longest day of the year, to illustrate the balance of happiness and gloom in life. He emphasizes that life is a combination of both emotions and that one should fulfill their duties without being attached to the outcomes, surrendering to God's will. The second part, "The Steady Progress," discusses his encouragement to a neighbor's son who excelled in his S.S.C. exam and later succeeded in his IT career in Canada. Valibhai highlights the dangers of educational wastage and stagnation, noting that many students fail to achieve their potential. He provides useful tips for continuous success, emphasizing that initial success is not the end, the importance of maintaining effort, having pure intentions, and the need to look beyond current achievements for future growth.
