Rock n' Roll Doggie VIP PASS
Hmm.... interesting. (I want to learn Chinese someday....... my dad has Cantonese audio tapes from when he used to see his martial arts Sifu back in HK.... maybe I'll get my hands on those someday)
================
Just to have a small start.... I didn't get very far, but these are some things I've been loosly pondering
First, narccistic as I am, I'll start with some personal things in my life. For me... I can be happy as is, right now. I've no attachments to anyone, or anything, really. I have my family, and I like family values and such, I like family traditions, and family activities, etc. But... I'm pretty well distanced from my family, and it is a unique one at that.....
But... I'm getting to... we all know the phrase "seeking happines externally" outside of yourself, etc. Well, I wonder...
When I was young, and didn't believe in love, I wasn't happy (because a lot of things). But at the same time, now that I've been touched by love, I always feel like there is something that is not quite there, (since I don't have a real significant other right now). So it's a strange thing. For me, it's almost as if there are two sets of laws that govern my life. The "non-love" laws, and "love" laws. I'm pretty sure this is an "individual basis" thing, because people love in different ways, etc, but still, I figure I'll use it to start this all off. (Eventually, or should I say, I'm sure this will branch off into "what is love?" and etc)
But the minute point I'm striving to ..... point out... is that....
As much as happiness comes internally, and is a state of mind... Happiness is a state of mind, I believe.... but as much as it is such.... there seems to be some sort of link to other people, no matter what.
From writing this, I'd "feel" that this reminds me of something else, or supports it - the idea that we are all in this together, humankind as a society, etc. Can one really be happy alone?
More than just the simple "emotion" of happiness, but also, fufilment, having a purpose, etc.. My initial reaction to this would be.... that everyone has a different personality type, so it varies immensly. However....... we're all human, still.
well, I guess this is a start..... if not a shoty one..........
