I was going to write I was happy , but change that, I am optimsitic. Very optimsitic.
A wise man once questioned, are we ever really happy? We search for hapiness through a number of different things, we want the latest material possession, we get it..and we have enjoyment. But the level of enjoyment and 'hapiness' is never sustained, we get bored and move on.
And if you reflect upon your life goals and challenges, as I have mine, maybe you will find that the journey and the struggly is what made you happy. The feeling of mortality, of fear of it all going wrong, which made your passion show itself in the face of adversity. The hunger that people could see in your eyes, The fire that you feel in your soul, witness in your passion. That is what happiness feels like. Or more-so, optimism that I have.
I am learning something different this week, which I am excited about. Little skills which add character, and that is what I feel I want more of - character. More strings to my bow.
I have the hunger, and the fire back, well did it ever really go?
