Happiness? Are you There? It's me Brittney

What is Happiness?

I have an obsession with happiness, I am constantly trying to make myself more aware of it, to better understand what it really is. It's fleeting to say the least. Here one minute gone the next, but is it really? As human beings we are always looking for the next big thing, the next high, the next rush etc. Once we find it we need to move on to bigger things. Happiness is like that. Once we find happiness we become too comfortable: we take that feeling for granted and soon we no longer think we're happy. Not because anything has change but because nothing has changed, the stalemate in our moments allows us to lose sight of happiness.
This is part of the reason I like staying busy. In every moment there is something new to enjoy, whether it be bungee jumping, or going for dinner with a new friend, or catching up with an old friend, or having a romping good sac session. Happiness can be found every where as long as you allow it to enter you. Now I feel like I need to add something else to this idea. You expect Happiness to come to you. You cannot say I am going to sit in bed until Happiness find me. NO! what the hell are you thinking?! When has Happiness ever been found laying bed. (aside from as i said earlier a romping good sac session) Happiness comes from living life, engaging with the people around you and new people. It comes from learning new things, taking pride in your job whatever it may be, it comes from doing the things you want to do. If you want to go to Europe then make a plan and make it happen, if you want to go for a walk then lace up your shoes and get going. Grandeur does not matter when dealing with Happiness its simply about living your life and finding your peace. Peace now thats a new word I think I should look into some more.
