Don't fake it baby, lay the real thing on me posted : 04/28/09 at 09:55pm pst listening to:mark lanegan-morning glory wine

helllooo out there, hello

Photobucket

well, what can i say......i haven't had bad dreams lately, haven't had trouble sleeping. I've been having happy moments.

I've realized lately, more than ever, that searching for a constant state of happiness is a silly game. I think it's about searching for happy moments. What more can any of us do than just have a happy day? Just to be outside in the sun and be alive is a huge accomplishment.

And for all the fucked up things that happen in the world, I've been reminded that there's an equal beautiful and bright side. Sometimes there's a pretty pink and orange sky over my head, and there are honeysuckles growing. There are good movies and laughs and animal and big shady trees....there are people who are genuine, and trains, and wine and amazing songs....there are happy little kids and tarantulas and bob dylan and and comic books.... It feels good to be reminded of that, of this side of the world.

And that's all i've got that's worth sayin' tonight, i think, unless of course anyone wants to hear me ramble on about cartoons I miss seeing.

it took me ages to realize that trying to live a happy life is impossible, but living each day to the happiest it can be, is way more attainable. just having fun is the way to go. im glad youre good.

There are great big beautiful bridges and sweet little birds and sunny patches of grass to lay on while eating an ice cream cone.  And bicycle rides and tangerines and teapots and goose down blankets. 

So many wonderful little happy things.

I know how it is... to think so much about every bad thing going on... I guess you are right and it is just the way it goes and that there are actually good things... My father tells me everytime I see him that I have to accept that I can't change everything into GOOD... but its hard to stop...

But I am happy that you feel good. I am happy at the moment as well and looking forward to all the good times coming up... :) <3<3<3

 Happy moments are the best, and they are always highlighted by the shitty shit we go through.
