Happiness

1/08/2008

I sit behind these walls... wallowing. Happiness is such a fleeting emotion, yet no one wants to face the harsh reality.

Without sorrow, depression, anger, betrayal, disappointment, and heartache- happiness wouldn't exist. You can not be fully content or feel true happiness in any moment without having experienced any other emotion.

When you meet the average person chances are they are not truly happy. They are comfortable being content with how their lives are without making a fuss over how they want it to be. Settling. They're too tired to put up a fight and make their dreams become reality. Or they have beat themselves up so much in their lifetime they actually believe that this is how life is and always will be.

I refuse to be content with my life. I will not sit back and watch it pass by wondering how everyone else seems to do it. I won't let the devils of my mind tell me I can not achieve what I want to.
