| But it's not. |

I feel when we are kids, we know how to be happy. We are happy just like that. Living makes us happy. It's the natural state of being.
As we grow up, we need to learn how to be happy with ourselves and the world again, because somewhere on the way we allowed disappointment to take over. We thought it's natural to be like this.
But it's not.
We simply forgot. And then, with each bit of happiness comes a bit of guilt: do I deserve this? Is this real? What if it all ends?
Disappointment creeps in and again, we feel it's alright, because it's what being an adult is like.
But it's not.
Happiness does not carry guilt or anxiety.
It's the disappointment and the fear that do.
Because we do. |
