Happiness

I just need to share this: for the first time in so very long, today I actually feel happy. Nothing particularly exciting happened - in fact something unpleasant occurred. It hasn't taken my pleasure away. I had a picnic lunch with another mother and our children. We sat in the sun, on some grass near a playground.
We initially sat somewhere else, and were moved on for being inadvertently on "private" land, but it didn't upset me. It was a simple, enjoyable time. And I feel happy. I think I'd forgotten how that feels.
I feel light. This is wonderful. Wow!

it is a really pretty bird. Unusual but very pretty.

I missed you too. Was up all night again though and had to head off early. Left home around 8am.

I could be better, but I could be worse. Battling the inner demons again. Been such a busy day.

How are you?

Harhar if this house was a Ginger Bread House, I may be homeless now! 😞
I just filled a large mug up with my creation, of everything but not the- carpet!
Yucky the carpet in my yummy soup, nearly just the thought of that is making me feel sickish!! euuwwwwh! 😞

I think any kinda Demon is horrible, poor love & precious! I wish we were lying down on your bedroom floor together, just hanging out together, maybe listening to music & drawing animals or what ever together? No Demons welcome!
My Ruby girl will warn them off! She is seriously a gr8 guard dog for me!! I adore her my baby, she is. hhar you may not see Ruby as a Baby yet I do. I'm her mummy, so she is my Baby!.... I think I need a doll somehow!!
anyway, back to reality, why don't you try the Passion Flower Tea too?
The worst it can make you Passionate!....I think I am nearly healed, as I am becoming quick thinking, oh so ridiculous me again!! Yippy!

Re: Happiness

cant see pic yet @Former-Member

I hope your soup is as yummy as you think it is!

Lol theres no room on my bedroom floor, stuff everywhere! Still oragnnising it from the move so trying to find furniture and also storage boxes so I can clear out unwanted stuff to the shed.

My horse was older than me at the time and she was my baby. It doesnt matter their ages for our pets, the one thing that never ever lets us down are our pets.

I have to be careful with all the stuff on my and im really sensitive to change esp gut and also smell wise. I cant smell anything in my room as in like the essence type stuff otherwise it makes me really queasy and iv tried peppermint and chamolmile tea both making me feel off afterwards. So I generally stick with just normal tea

how about one of these for your new avatar??

Re: Happiness

@Former-Member @Former-Member @Shaz51 @outlander @ any who cares or it may concern.......

Just gonna do a typo session of talking about my feelings and thoughts. And reality. Then I'll leave you with my peace before i have a metwurst, cheese and tomatoe toasted sandwich for tea.

From my experiences. It is a cruel world. And there are people who pretend too care. And feed off of the cruel ways of the world. Which have been inflicted upon another. Which perhaps make it. That little bit more like the cruelest of all cruel things anyone is able to endure. (Happiness and joy for me )

I feel for other human beings before and more then i feel for myself. Because i have assessed their own suffering of suffering to what i have endured. So even though they may pretend. I know reality has already sent them around the bend. And their every action. Is an attempt to reverse the effect. And it is cruelly done in vein to themselves.

It could be compared to a sailing on the sea. When there is no breeze. Ahoy there. How are you today? Smiles and waves or not. All their brains know. Is vein. This is their best weapon. In their attempts too stay sane. Not a solo act. The insanity remains.

A vicious game

Re: Happiness

Hi @Sans911 sorry i havent paid you any attention so far. I was tied up in other affairs.

I'm here to talk too. Lean on. Be a friend. Get a response from. Just doing my own thing in real life. I'm a very fragile man too be honest with you. Not sure what has caused that?

I hope things have went well for you today. If not. Tomorrow is a new day. I'm feeling very drained. I should be acting like the kittens that are sleeping on the chair but unfortunately. Being a human just aint that easy .

Human touch and connection would be good. A handshake. A hello. A good bye. A blissful feeling as i go my own way. It ain't that simple though. In a world. That is slowly forcing a detached state among all beings. No wonder the world has gone mad.

Re: Happiness

hi @eudemonism

i think youve done a fine job at expressing yourself. it is a cruel world we live in. i often think of this quote "dont let the world change your smile, let your smile change the world'

i too feel the pain of others, it can be very distressing cant it
