Trueness....

True "happiness" ... is it possible? does it exist? is it even fathomable.... and if not, why is the whole world so hung up on finding it?

I think I've probably stated my soft-headed views on this subject in conversation, Hanny, but I like to think of happiness as a decision and not a found thing. I think it is a state of mind one decides to put oneself into, rather than something tangible or intangible that can be sought out or discovered. I inadvertantly made this decision in the tenth grade, when, having been steeped in depressive alternative rock music and dressing in all black for a year, I discovered that I had absolutely nothing to complain about, no discomfort or irritation in my life, and that things were good, really good. So, I kept listening to my depressive rock music and wearing whatever I wanted to, and refused to act depressed and troubled like my peers did at the time.

I'm sure this all sounds silly, but all the same, when a person focuses on the negative, that's all they are ever going to see. Somehow I managed to realize this, so the bad things never seem to matter much, while instead I make a big fuss over the good things and they seem even better than they did before. Bubblestuff and Slurpees top the list of things that [B]shouldn't[B/] be a big deal for me...

i agree with luna.
the search for 'happiness' is like the search
for the mythical 'one'.
(and this time i am referring to the person
as opposed to the number)

it doesn't exist. but it makes for good motivation.
