The glitz, the glam, the money......But are they really happy? Celebrities have everything that money can buy and you wonder why they are alcoholics, addicted to drugs, and having nervous breakdowns. They have everything, but is it happiness? Is it the smile you put on your face when you enter work when you clearly hate you job. Is happiness the way you cuddle in bed with your significant other when you know you can't stand their ass! Or maybe happiness is a mystery that has not yet been discovered, floating around in the cosmos awaiting for some one to make it real.......genuine.
Someone on the outside may think your life is so perfect, that you got it going on, that you are " Happy ". It may be an appearance and your " happiness " is just not real. Sometimes I think this unsolved thing may not even exist. It may be just the thing that keeps us from being complete, whole. But we want it, because we work so hard to get it. Working a 40 hour shitty-ass job because it pays the most, to buy the things you always wanted, and not being able to enjoy it because your at work. So you continue to buy these " things " that you feel will make you happy.....but it doesn't work.
I look at the Travel Channel from time to time and its this show with these two guys who go to these remote villages to stay with these primative tribes. The people live off the land, hunt their food, and walk around among each other naked and free. No electricity, technology, or modern amenities. They just have each other and I think thet are genuinely happy. So maybe we need to give it all up; the nice house, the car, and the rest of the luxuries and go to find happiness. Because I think what we are doing right now is not working!
