freewriting: Happiness
it should be noted before you read on that the following was written a few days ago - it was written just after a fight with mike, and mostly in response to a freewriting prompt i had received just days before - things are obviously better now, but it is still a piece of my writing that i would like to share:
happiness is a feeling you only remember because you're too busy FEELING it to realize what it is - it is not until you come down off that magnificent high that you realize what that was - it is not until you fall into the deep dark pits of yourself that you recall the times you USED to be happy - it's only when you truly feel you have lost the spark that you can REALLY grasp the importance of those happy times - those times when life was beautifully full of color - you have to take the good with the bad, for if you don't, you'll never truly grasp what it is you have - live like there's nothing stopping you - love as if there's NO ONE who can break your heart - and laugh as if you don't even know HOW to cry - only then can you understand
Sometimes, a faulty memory
is a blessing. . . .
