What is happiness? That moment of euphoria after taking a risk and coming out on top? The feeling of resolute success? A mere chemical stimulation to the limbic system? These are but half-truths, and I posit that happiness is rather the state of acceptance one commits to after realizing that they have not quite failed, that happiness is hope and satisfaction commixed into one emotion firing across synapses. I believe that happiness is more than a long sought after feeling, it is a transient state of acknowledging the unknown and realizing that reality is not as bad as it could be. ~With that said, let us dedicate our lives to accumulating those small moments of happiness and helping others to do so the same. It is often found in the smallest amounts, surrounding the simplest things is life~ ~My Philosophical Musings this Wednesday~
