Why Be Happy? When You Can Be Fascinating

Traditionally, we have been taught since the

beginning of time that being happy is the

ultimate goal. But rather, the goal is to

achieve a state of life where happiness,

sorrow, joy, grief, comfort, misery all come

together, simultaneously, to paint a bigger

picture that thrives on both the highs and the lows... A picture where shadows are admired as much as highlights.

Ironically out there for the rather surviving individuals, some yet find so much beauty in this level of melancholy. They want to feel sadness, they want to feel sorrow. It's a teacher, and a looking glass into what it

really means to feel joy.

I'm not addicted to sadness, It is in fact the

opposite. I seek out joy. At my core i am a

happy person, this is why i make myself feel

deeply, only to remind myself that happiness

is earned. Happiness is a perspective and

such i seek to remind myself of what i have.

I keep hearing the phrase, "Stress kills."

However, I know for a fact that stress does

NOT kill...it's not knowing how to deal with

stress which kills. Having stress, but

knowing how to deal with it actually makes

you live longer. It's those people whom

WORRY about what's stressing them whom

die early.

That's, basically, what this whole video is

about. People are SEEKING different ways to

bring some sort of stress onto themselves;

because, a life without stress is a boring life.

When people feel bored, they attempt to

bring sadness, difficulty and/or misery into

their lives; all in an attempt to conquer it.

Those whom can NOT conquer their stress.

FUN NOT: There's a reason why there are so

many "drama queens" in this world.

Because, there are SO MANY people these

days living a life which is too good, or too

easy. So, they make trouble for themselves

or others in a way to bring forth stress as a

form of entertainment. Stress CAN be a

good thing; but, bringing it on yourself or

others just for fun can easily be a terrible

thing.

End up dying early and unexpectedly.

However, those whom DO conquer their

stress are the ones whom are able to say,

"Tell them I've had a wonderful life."
