8. HAPPINESS Even after careful contemplation,
I still can’t understand it.
I’ve only read about it and seen it in other people.
Will I ever be able to experience it for myself firsthand?
What is happiness?
It’s such a foreign concept to me.
Is happiness only a momentary feeling?
Or is it like a cozy hug that keeps you warm for the rest of the day?
Maybe longer?
Is it the early sun-rays of the summer that melt away the cold snow of a harsh winter?
How can one obtain this feeling?
For me,
It has always been elusive.
Can it be described in words?
Or is it as inexplicable as this sadness I’ve sunk in?
Is it possible for despair to somehow be converted to ecstasy without the use of any pills?
If I can’t save me from my own self,
Then it’s probably ridiculous of me to hope for
