What is happiness anymore?
I think happiness 'now' is what it was when 5 or 10 or 20, a lot of things have to be in place to be happy.
1. a feeling of being loved, liked and appreciated
2. succeeding at whatever it is you feel you should succeed at
3. Physical touch, as in hugs, romance ect
4. Sense of community
5. And prosperity
But as we age a lot of those things begin to drop off and can become more isolated, alienated in life, then what?
I mean at 15 you can be inspired by the future, but at say 60 can you still be inspired by the future?
Oh well, I can't solve any of it here, all I can do now is go into the kitchen and maybe cook something to eat.

Happiness, hmm
I think happiness is a willful illusion most of us chase when older.
Some, or maybe many, do actually know, live, and are happy...some actually do have the perfect family dynamic, perfect job, career.
Some are wealthy while still young enough to enjoy it.
I mean to be 23 and driving around in a new Corvette, that's happiness.
But me, right now, looking forward, happiness is just an illusion to me that I tell self that something will give in my favor one day.

Happiness is being around people who aren't afraid to give you a hug.

I've got to learn to be happy again, even if I construct a fake scenerio in my mind, as in just make up a life I don't have, make up and invent friends I don't have, pretend that I'm loved, valued and cared for. I think I need to do all of that just for my own mental and physical health, cause I've read the more happy you are, the more loved you feel, the better your health will be. As I look out the patio window and see the rain dripping down and the overcast sky, I could sure use some love and happiness today, that's for sure.  |
