Bliss

Have you ever had a dream where you were so contently happy?  Life was great.  You had direction and a purpose. You looked forward to your challenges instead of running from them.  And you were incredibly happy because the person you love loves you back.

Yeah I've had dreams like that too.

Then you wake up.  Life's still hard.  You wanna hide under your covers from the world's cruelness.  Because we all know the world is not merciful.  It likes to see us sad, doesn't it? It likes to make things hard, difficult, frustrating, confusing, I'm sure we could all go on.

And it will probably always be that way.  But that's okay, because that's how this life is supposed to be.  We at times are supposed to be sad and then happy, confused then enlightened, frustrated then content, and it's supposed to be sad and then happiness comes in whatever form it chooses.  And the happiness is so wonderful that it overcomes all the sadness ever experienced.

Or at least, that is the happiness I dream of.
