RE: Frustrated With Life?? ... What is Happiness and How Can We Learn To Cultivate It?
a great post you got here:)
they way I've been dealing with happiness is quite similar to what you're serving here. it has some of its differences tho but yea they look alike haha
the similarities can be found in the way that you tend to shy away from trying to be happy. I totally agree with this.
the differences: i tend to view happiness as a phase in life. just like sadness, or confusion, uncertainty or certainty, pleasure, pain, etc.
we h00mans are a being that can never be satisfied. we are consumers. consuming everything we can. we simply can not stop consuming (not only physical things). and I think no matter how much we try to extinguish the state of unhappiness, another one will rise and keep on lining up.
it works the same with any other feeling like those I said earlier.
so yeah, I just viewed them as a phase or a process of life.
it's more like a way of letting go of the steer regarding feelings and emotions and just completely engulf yourself in it. living in it.
but srsly, i really found that your method is quite interesting and might as well live my life for a couple of months with it haha.
cheers mate :)
