“Happiness is simply the absence of desire… Happiness is not about the achievement of pleasure (which is joy or satisfaction), but about the lack of desire. It arrives when you have no urge to feel differently. Happiness is the state you enter when you no longer want to change your state.”
James Clear (author of Best Seller Atomic Habits)
It has been a year.
I had been happy.
It’s time I come out of this Pandora bubble.
Sure, it’s charming and comfortable.
Sure, it’s shallow and deceiving.
Like they say, there’s cost associated with everything,
happiness also has a price.
It’s time I return to the root.
Damp. Dark. Disgusting. Dangerous.
For, happiness isn’t promised to anyone.
For, happiness doesn’t promise eternality.
Muddle through!
Let that sink in.
Namaste.
