Just Another Day
Well, I guess I am feeling better than when I last wrote.Just another day in not so paradise.Just wish I had the energy to get up and moveing but to be honest going back to bed seems more realistic.Just cant seem to ever feel good and cant remember the last time I was truly happy.....What is happiness anyways??? How does one go about finding happiness?? People just seem to go through the everyday motions doing what is expected of them.How many people acually enjoy the beauty around them.Have you ever just sat in a parking lot or a park and just looked at people and wondered if they are truly happy and what thier lives are like?? Drive by homes that are lit by soft lights at night and wonder are they the perfect family??yes,yes I know thier is no such thing as the perfect person or the perfect family but that is the way of thinking for most of us ,that is our unrealistic goal to be....As anyone who may be reading this can see ,i am thinking way to much these days.... So until next time.....Take care all......

Honey, from where I sit, you ARE thinking too much...and to be thinking about the elusive \"happiness\" is such a waste of time! My H of nearly 25 years (whom I divorced in 2007) spent the entire 30 years we were together in search of \"happiness.\" I have never put a lot of stock into that -- I will take PEACE over that elusive \"happiness\" any day.
Peace is something you measure by YOUR OWN HEART and no one else\'s. It is different for everyone. It also comes from having faith in yourself and being comforted by the simple things in life -- the sun coming up in the morning; having a roof over your head and food on your table.
Watching other people and wondering what goes on in their lives is never going to give you answers, because what you see on the OUTSIDE has nothing to do with what\'s going on INSIDE -- and none of us can see what goes on behind the closed doors of their lives.
True PEACE comes from within and cannot be changed by anything external. God bless you.
