recently i’ve been feeling happy, and it is absolutely euphoric! yesterday i felt happy when my mum gave me a hug. today i felt happy while talking to my friends over skype. it’s been a while since i’ve been able to clearly identify Happiness as an emotion i’m experiencing. (a tiny burst of excitement, a genuine urge to smile) have you been happy recently? are you happy right now? i hope you are.
happiness is such a privilege(!) and i am so, so grateful for these fleeting moments of happiness. happiness is so hard to come by… sometimes when i’m really sick, it feels like my brain is completely devoid of serotonin :0 feeling sad, with no discernible reason, is confusing and lonely. i wonder how many people feel lonely in this very moment.
i trust that there is meaning to my sadness even if i might not understand it! and the same goes for anger. jealousy. frustration… i must remind myself that all these emotions are part of the Human Experience and it’s more than ok to feel these emotions.
i’m so glad i can feel.
