I began to write a reply and then I decided that I actually wanted to make it the subject of a separate post, so now, you'll have to wait a little longer :-)<br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14635459553070477520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5961824366587237788.post-6352060708514796332013-08-04T13:24:28.460-06:002013-08-04T13:24:28.460-06:00Good word! Very descriptive. And yes, I agree. The...Good word! Very descriptive. And yes, I agree. There will be no moment in our lives when we can say: "This is it. Happy now. No more dreams to achieve."Even my 90-year-old grandma has dreams, projects, goals... And that's what keeps her content and driven. I hope I'll be like her. <br /><br />Anyways, again, for argument's sake... what is happiness exactly? How do you define happiness? I've tried to give it a definition/description recently, and I failed. Aren't we in a quest for the holy grail here if we are looking for happiness? Aren't we looking for the wrong thing? <br />Isn't happiness overrated anyways? Isn't happiness a big fat lie? <br /><br />For me I think peace better describes what I'm aiming for. Happiness is too ephemeral. Too unsustainable. Too hollywoodian. Peace sounds more real. More permanent. More achievable with practice. It does not depend on anyone but me. And through peace, yes, maybe I can be happy too. <br /><br />Think about this: "And they lived happily ever after". What a load of stinking poo!! No, there is definitely no such thing... As kids we were brainwashed into believing the wrong thing. I think children's stories from now on should all end with "And they lived together in relative peace and harmony through hard work, tolerance, forgiveness and a strong will to resolve conflicts and overcome difficulties together."<br /><br /> <br />Dnoreply@blogger.com
