Random Thoughts

What is life and where are we going? Are we all crawling slowly towards the dark pit of doom? Are we on our way to paradise, an abstract place people blindly describe as fun and perfect? Why are we all born and why do we all die? Are we here to feel pain, to sin, to self destruct, to be the slaves of our desires and dreams, to fight in wars, to feel the pain of letting go, to watch the hatred in the eyes of others, to see abandoned children in the streets, to witness other people change for the worse, to feel hunger if we don’t (eat) work, to be enslaved by rules that others dictate, to be at the mercy of our fates? Why do we cry, why do we dream and why do we desire?

Every day, I see women crying in the papers, the television and books. I've witness (confused, depressed, hurt, and etc) women in real life break down and cry. I imagine that a lot of women in the privacy of their bedrooms bury their heads in their soft and comforting pillows, to break down and cry. The very thought depresses me.

I have reason to believe that our dreams, illusions, assumptions and our distorted view of our current truths and conditions hurt us.

Expectations are killers, even worst than nukes for nukes could only kill bodies, but unmatched realities + expectations could shatter a person’s heart into thousands of little pieces and make a person very unhappy.

Unhappiness is a plague that is slowly consuming people. A lot of people go out of their way to be happy, a noticeable symptom of unhappiness. Those who seek happiness will never find it because happiness is something that can’t be sought. Happiness is a state of being, a state of mind. In other words, happiness is always around us, but so is sadness, boredom and despair. State of being means the truths or your realities now and how you deal with them. Happiness is found when there is contentment. How we see and deal with current realities will determine our happiness. The key to happiness is acceptance. By accepting our true circumstances and by looking at them eye-to-eye and working with them, we start to see the happiness that is always there in our midst, ever since from the start.

Illusions are our distorted views of the current situation and of our current realities. We tend to start dreaming when we cannot change current circumstances, in order to convince ourselves otherwise, but who are we kidding? Dreams are fun, but they are not real and they only serve to remind us of how unhappy we are about our current circumstances.
