Inner Happiness
Submitted by: Brian Y.
Manassas, VAI'm a musician. I'm a Gemini. My favorite band is Metallica.
I found my inner happiness. It was one of the things I put on my “So happy and grateful now that…” list. Once I intended to find it, I realized there’s really only one place to look for it, inside. So I looked. About 5 to 10 seconds later, I was smiling for no reason. It was, or I should say it is right there. It made no sense. I was on my way into a Wal-Mart at the time. I ended up walking around the store smiling for no apparent reason.
There were some things that happened that day that were majorly upsetting for me, and I was still happy as I looked back on them, which didn’t make sense. Everything else that’s on my list, I suddenly felt all of it in the invisible, and I still do. And when I focus on any one by itself, it becomes a more vivid picture.
Inner happiness also causes me to care less about what other people think of me. Also, I still appreciate the things that cause outer happiness (things that please the senses), but they don’t matter quite as much to me anymore. I love them, but it’s like it’s nothing for me to have that. I can find having that like I can find grass. I enjoyed sharing this, and I hope it helps someone.
