Fleeting moments Dude strung together…in my life would equal 2 hours.
I guess I;m what you’d call a “negative” thinker, though I’ve tried to be positive it is unnatural for me, though I wish it were so I cannot see the silver lining, cuz there aint none.
Some of this maybe a propensity to think negatively, feel despair more easily, not be able to take life’s knocks as well as others who have less imagination. I’m reminded of Elton John’s “Circle of Life:-some of us sail thru our troubles, and some have to live with the scars.
Every emotion is hard to describe but there are few which are harder to describe than love and happiness. I, too, have forgotten what happiness feels like and I am working to rediscover it along with my other emotions. I know I must have felt it before, I can remember saying that I was happy but the emotions have since left the memories of those moments.
These past weeks of me life have been naught but a blur. I can not remember what happened.
These past weeks have brought me within in inch of my life. Is that what I wanted to happen?
These past weeks have changed me forever. Only time will tell what will happen.
I have lived without emotions for over 5 years. In 5 years you forget what those emotions felt like. It was around 2 weeks ago when all of that started to change. Some emotions came back and I felt like I was on top of the world for approximately 3 days. I was a little stressed but I felt like I could not be stopped. Then November 1st came crashing down around me. Whatever walls were holding my emotions back had been broken. I almost took my life several times that week. My emotions would change in seconds as if every feeling I had missed over the past 5 years of my life had come rushing out in sequential order. It was the worst week of my life, but I loved it for some reason. I remembered what happiness was during that time. I remembered what sadness was. Those feelings have since gone.
Happiness for me has been difined in the past as when I am exhilarated, explosions of endorphines, some brought forth by drugs and alcohol, and some by acting out in a dangerous way like driving really fast, driving and jumping hills and the like.
What I really think today is happiness, is the abscense of worry, pain, angst, hatred etc.
Hapiness is like a cloud. Yes, it does exist, yes, you can feel it. But the moment you try to touch it or put it in tangible terms, POOF, it’s gone. That’s why it’s best not to think abot it in tangible terms, because it’s not tangible.
Happiness to me is riding on a roller coaster. You know how it feels when you go down the first hill and the fear and excitement build up inside you and you just raise your hands and scream. That’s happiness for me. I was happy the day I got married too. Felt so special and loved. I’m sure there are more moments but they just don’t stand out for me. I hope to find happiness one of these days but I’m not sure how much longer I can wait.

Serenity, being at peace in ones own skin.
I don’t have this, thus unhappy.
