The Pursuit of Happyness

Pursuing happiness requires a great deal of imagination. It represents a part of our subconscious mind that awaits discovery. The beauty in it is that it can be reached so easily, yet at times, is so unattainable that one could just fall flat. Life is a great teacher. It treats us with great compassion, but most of the time, throws us off guard, again and again, to see if we could pick ourselves up with courage and dignity and move on with life. For me, to comprehend true happiness, at certain points in life, I must fully experience and understand sadness and pain for it is this opposite force that pushes us closer and closer to our pursuit of happiness in this life time. Happiness can be short lived. It can also be deceiving. It is as illusive as the air we breathe, so fragile yet beautiful in its nature. Happiness, like all things beautiful, is never meant to last. It is meant to be rediscovered, each time we tumble and fall on the path to having owned a fraction of this feeling called happyness.
