nobody finds that kind of happiness. life is not about happiness anyway. thats not what we are looking for. we are looking for something to feel.

life is not about being happy. thats just BS. if it is, so many of us are living pointless lives. it is about motion, the change we create in ourselves and in the world. we just need to break out of the motionless state we are in-defeat the inertia. we need depression. we need pain. we need to run in the streets and scream. we need to get down on our knees and cry. we need to hold to our lovers and beg them to stay with us. we need the strength hope gives us-only to defeat the hopelessness we are in. we need to love, hate, cry, grieve, run, hide and fight the future. fight our limited and short lifetimes. we dont belong to this planet, but lets make the stay worthwhile. we dont need happiness. we need passion. it is a very respectable quality, to be passionate. to believe in something.

"Passion, it lies in all of us. Sleeping...waiting...and though unwanted, unbidden, it will stir...open its jaws, and howl.

It speaks to us....guides us....Passion rules us all. And we obey. What other choice do we have?

Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love...the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief.

It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow, empty rooms, shuttered and dank. Without passion, we'd be truly dead."

dont go looking for happiness. there is no such thing.

oh and hey, 'with every broken heart, we should become more adventurous'

:wink:

But I think you should also find something to do with your life.


If nothing more, it ups the ante, and gives you more to worry about.


But if all of life is empty, why not find some purpose, even if in the end, it's all for naught.


That's just how I feel
