Well... this is a rhetorical piece. Before I start the monologue, I want the reader to answer to him/her self (u don’t have to fake it to your own self all the time!), are you happy, Sire/Madame?! The second thing that you need to know, does the answer matter to you? If yes and the answer to the former is no, what then? Plan to do something about it, Sugar? Or let time do its trick n fill up the holes (if that’s at all possible).
A lot of people are in this eternal state of ambiguity. They aren’t happy, but for the love of the holy life-supporting plant, won’t move a limb! Let’s call it a state of dissatisfaction (because unhappiness is too stringent a term which might be 'distasteful' to the reader).
Happiness, I beg to differ, is NOT a state of mind. You cannot, alas, make your mind think that it’s happy. That, buddy, would take some self-training (cracked the code already? Do mankind a favor and let the secret out, will ya , Einstein?!). And then there is competitive happiness - a giant black hole which will sucks everything into itself. I'm having more fun than you! To what else the success of FB can be ascribed to? Can happiness be quantized?!For that matter, can a lot of other things be quantized? Love, hate, take your pick. Aren’t these supposed to be absolute? Absolute love, absolute hate ,absolute evil, absolute happiness?! In this tiny part of the universe, trust me, nothing is absolute. All of this is a figment of your and, for that matter, my imagination!
We don’t exist in absoluteness, rather we exist in absolute-less-ness and thank the divine for that! We are a dilution of both. A coction, which rears its head without you even knowing it. No soul is absolutely happy (so ya can stop now being J of that gorgeous piece of bipedal primate next to ya, he/she would be cribbing for something else, looks might/mightn’t figure in the wish list), no soul is absolutely sad (so ya can stop comparing your recent disaster with those of others, they would be turning themselves silly with glee on something of which ya are totally clue-less). And then there are presumptions, prejudices, fatuations - in and out (for now we are gonna call the sour grapes, the monster, an out-fatution). Do you only see the evil in one and only the good in the other? Why does that happen? Ever wondered? How a sudden discovery catches you off guard, making you realize, my o' my, there is so much more beneath the surface. Darlin', life is very very long, and nobody is going anywhere. What thou sow, so shalt thou reap, very soon, real soon. Right here, pronto!
You see, my dear, life and people who make it so, are much more amusing that I thought.
