On most days I thought nothing ever happens in my life, that it is dull and stagnant. Now, since three months, it seems life is moving too fast. I feel I am on a roller-coaster which is throwing me to its sides; hope I won't fall off. And I am happy after a long time. They say no reason is needed for happiness, but you need a reason. There is a difference between being calm-happy enjoying a good breeze and exhilarating-happy for a reason. And I am experiencing the second one, which I hope lasts longer than a good breeze. It leaves you dazed, smiling at everyone. It makes you uncaring for criticism and tolerate even the meanest person. Wish there were more such days in everybody's life.
“ What is the feeling when you're driving away from people, and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? It's the too huge world vaulting us, and it's goodbye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.” -- Jack Kerouac (American Poet and Novelist) From what I have seen and admired in humans, they are eternal optimists. Goodbyes seem to break us, but we straighten up and walk, holding our head high, blinking away our tears. And as regards the specks of people dispersing, when something moves away, something else comes near. Guess that's how laws of nature move. If a time comes when nothing else comes near, it's when we will become really alone; alone to live and love life without any reason, taking the next step forward.
... if you could observe the movement of thoughts that creates the happy state, it could happen more often and always ...
