"Are you happy?
This is, as always, not an easy question to answer and like for most people the answer can change on a daily basis. Generally, I am happy - probably the happiest I’ve been. I’m in a place in my life where I do things I love and surround myself with people I treasure. However, there are so many times where happiness feels like a distant dream and I guess that like all emotions, happiness isn’t absolute. And I’m tring to accept that just because you feel sad, it doesn’t mean that you’re an unhappy person. You just are a person that feels and isn’t it better to experience both happiness and sadness than not to feel at all?
I wrote this yesterday:
I am trying to live everything now and, almost effortlessly, I’m enjoying it more than I have in a while. I’ve set myself so many (too many?) goals in recent years and I suppose I needed time to sit back and reflect on my life. Only then I was able to set myself new goals and, almost without noticing, I have slipped away from mountains of ‘to do’ lists and instead, I am just doing it - as if it couldn’t be any other way. And if you know how this feels, you’ll understand how happy I am - despite all the dark corners and closed doors and a sadness that sometimes can feel infinite."
