Serge Gainsbourg : "The idea of happiness is foreign to me, I do not conceive it so I do not seek it"
ktt full of depressed muhfuckas, i gotta make a thread about this later
What are you doing to maintain mentally healthy then?
If you're constantly seeking you're also constantly aware you don't have it. Happiness isn't a permanent state of being it's a fleeing feeling.
Happiness is an activity

legit used to look at the special needs kids in middle school and thought the same thing
Happiness is not attainable the way most people think it is. But you can be more happy in general probably I think most of us can.

Yeah id say this too. Its more of an appreciation of the moment you are in now, than some end destination/goal
What would the world be like if everyone's goal wasn't to be happy?
I'd rather be unhappy and gain knowledge/truth than be ignorant and happy
It brings me nothing but misery.
Just live with purpose and happiness will find you

What do you consider yourself?
appreciating the present is extremely hard, especially in western culture. The initial years of “finish this grade, then this grade, then go to college, then get a job, then get a car, then get a house, then a wife, then kids” is a constant looking forwards to the next thing. Most people go through 30-40 years of that before realizing that it won’t inherently bring happiness, and that constantly looking forward means constant discontentment.
Ppl gotta stop seeking validation from others and trying to live up to other's expectations.
I feel like sometimes you gotta hit a personal rock bottom before youre able to appreciate the present
"In order to have great happiness, you have to have great pain and unhappiness - otherwise how would you know when you're happy"
