‘Having it All’ = Having Jesus

This month opened with every newspaper in India headlining the suicide of television actress/model Kuljeet Randhawa.
Kuljeet had made it big in Indian television with lead roles in several serials. She was beautiful. She had money, fame & popularity. At the tender age of 30, Kuljeet had achieved what the world terms “success”.
When ex-Miss India/model/actress Nafisa Joseph committed suicide in the same manner two years ago, people asked the same question they’re asking now -
“Why would she, who had it all, do this?”
Media and society - indeed, the world in general - teaches us that beauty, wealth, fame & popularity are to be sought after - ‘If we gain these, then we will be happy’
The Bible offers us very different answers on how to be happy.
