Looked through my archives and found this entry I typed but didn't post for various reasons I can't recall. And this made me think. But as of now, I'm feeling happy because I'm doing what I like to do and not doing what I don't. I think I'm gradually learning to get less affected by others and start living for myself and acknowledging what I really feel (although that's kind of selfish in a way) but truly, I am becoming happier.
So here goes.
-
If it doesn't, don't."
Really?
Is it that simple?
What if what makes you happy kills others? What do you do? Because no matter what, you'll be unhappy. Is that why no one can ever be happy? Living for themselves or living for others? When do you choose which? What do you follow? Your heart or your brain? But even following your heart alone is so difficult. What does your heart tell you? Mixed confused feelings, there's no clear sign of which path to take. Then how do I decide? I want myself to be happy, that's what they told me to do. But making myself happy at the expense of others makes me unhappy too. How ironic. How would I end up? Emotionless. The problem with being able to feel complicates when you don't know whether to feel more for yourself or for others. And that's always what makes people unhappy.
You can never be happy.
Because being happy can make you unhappy.
So ultimately who defines my happiness?
