The never ending saga
What would make you happy?
That is the question that the beautiful, single, Siu, posed to me the other night on my, now famous, commute home.
Boy did that question piss me off. Not the question, in retrospect, and certainly not the asker of the question, but the fact that I had no answer to the question. That is what pissed me off.
What would make you happy? It is such a simple question, really, but try answering it for yourself sometime. It is damn near impossible. I thought finishing grad school would make me happy, and it did...for a period of time. I am now happy that I have that accomplishment under my belt.
After pondering this damn questions for far too long now, this is what I have concluded...happiness is relative to the moment. It is a sad realization, this I know, but, "stop me when I'm wrong". Something that may make you happy right this minute will not be the same thing you need to make you happy even a few days from now.
More closet space would make me happy and some space to craft would be sheer and utter bliss, but like most things in life when it actually takes place, there will be other things that I will need or need to accomplish in order to have the same satisfaction...to be happy.
