What exactly is happiness
<p>I wrote a letter to myself, it was therapeutic at least at that point. I meant what I said but I can't help feeling this way. Happiness feels like nothing but an illusion.</p><p><br></p><p>You think you're happy until something happens and then you realise your happiness was based on some condition. You were never truly happy, you just had a routine, things that made you happy and they were your illusion. When the spell break, you're back to the very beginning.</p><p><br></p><p>I'm sick of my routine, I did it so much that now it barely makes me happy. I try to be funny, to make a joke out of my life's situation. I like seeing the bright smile on people's faces, I love knowing I made an impact in other people's life. At least I'm helping someone even if it's not myself.</p><p><br></p><p>I hate that I can't motivate myself the way I do others, each day I hope to be a blessing to others when I'm barely a blessing to myself. They said 'Nemo Quod Dat Non Habet' but I've been doing the opposite of that for a while, giving out what I don't have myself.</p><p><br></p><p>Happiness is fleeting and Souls last a lifetime, would I really be unhappy for a lifetime?</p>
