Desire For Happiness
“Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence.” – Aristotle

This is something I noticed about myself:That when I feel elated, I am having a difficult time writing a post.Unlike when I’m in the dumps – the words seem to come out naturally.Well, I’m certainly not wishing for sad days to come.Because God knows how I hated them.And how much trouble they cause me and the people around me.
But back to the topic…Right now, I’m in a pretty good mood.Yet I can’t seem to find the right words to describe my feelings.
Could it be that I knew loneliness too well?Have I been in the dumps for such a long time?And has it left me with very little understanding of what happiness is?Maybe.
Could it be that happiness is such an overwhelming emotion for me?That the meaning behind such emotion is so difficult for me to grasp?Perhaps.
Or could it be that…When a person is happy, words are truly not enough to express what s/he feels?Quite possibly.
But whatever the reason behind this, one thing is for sure:I want to stay happy.I want to make an effort to lift my mood when I’m on the verge of being sad.And I would like to become that person who could handle her emotions well…The person who would still be able to choose to be happy no matter what the circumstances are.
If I can make that happen, then my life would be so much better.
