Greetings to all curious enough or bored enough to click on this thread.
Friendly warning - the blog I am about to share with you folk does use some "colourful" language at times but I will steer clear for the moment. Am I making any sense - it is hard to tell at times!
Here's a sample without the dubious language! ->
Happiness, like other emotions, is not something you obtain, but rather something you inhabit. It is temporary1. Always.
What this implies is that finding happiness is not achieved in itself, but rather it is the side effect of a particular set of ongoing life experiences. This gets mixed up a lot, especially since happiness is marketed so much these days as a goal in and of itself. Buy X and be happy. Learn Y and be happy. But you can’t buy happiness and you can’t achieve happiness. It just is—once you get other parts of your life in order.
Stop Trying To Be Happy
Enjoy your browsing!
