(It’s one of my early posts. I think you will see a difference in the style of writing. I made no changes!)
Who doesn’t want to be happy? We all do! But what exactly is happiness? Happiness is described as a state of being happy!!! And then again, what is being happy? Happy is equivalent to a state of joy or pleasure
.
So now that we know what is the emotion that is happiness, how to achieve it? And why do we have to attain this state of mind?
The usual expectation people have about a good life is, that it is a happy life. I agree with you and so would about 99% of people in this world. But what makes a person happy is a big variable. If riches are one person’s…

Finding more happiness — by Jim Adams
It is thought that happiness comes from three things, those being genetics, circumstances, and values, but I think of it as more of a personal choice where we can all decide if we want to be happy or not in life. Different things will make different people happy, whether that involves having money, or spending time with their loved ones, first we have to figure out how pleasure works. Dopamine is most notably involved in helping us feel pleasure as part of the brain’s reward system.

With children, grandchildren, her other (sometimes better) half, the kite travelled further, higher, reaching the stars almost. It was through their laughter, she managed to stay sane. When happiness got stuck in a tree, it was her daughter who brought it back down again. When twisting around in circles, it was her husband, taking it by the string, to stop it. As the string got tangled, working together with her granddaughter fixed it again.
Happiness, a kite with ribbon, and string, cost barely pennies, yet every year, just like the crabbing net, brought…

Coasting …. by Susi Bocks

Inspired by Reena’s Exploration Challenge #273 & Moonwashed Weekly Prompt – Willy Nilly
trapped in our own space
listlessly tossed about in uncharted territory
letting depression and anxiety set in deeper
watching what happiness we had drained
if only something forced us to interact willy-nilly
what with our sanity at stake
but would we listen?
Welcome back! PROMPT #273 In this week, I'd like you to spare one minute to watch this video and reflect on it. Give it a little more time if you struggle to understand or agree with it. Then, start banging the keyboard and type whatever comes to mind. Let it be 'stream of consciousness' writing. … Continue reading Reena’s Xploration Challenge #273
The night is darker than usual, though the almanac says Full Moon will illuminate the skies soon. She walks through many worlds in her dreams and nightmares, while staying pinned to her uncomfortable bed. All this will soon be a thing of the past, but then…. how soon? There are so many pointers to the … Continue reading Dawn Break
