the art of happiness

[Alwin]

I feel the phrase is used too often in a mocking way, although it contains some truth.

ah you know we are all different, but underneath it all we are all the same in one way or another
i for one am not sceptical about happiness, but i am not 21 and overly cynical anymore either

 

[bleed_black_orchid]

That was a compliment!? bloody hell..cant say anything right these days. Whatsup with being like an Owl!?

 

[Alwin]

I don't mind - I was just playin' with the self-assembled furniture boy

I am pretty sceptical about anything that talks about happiness as art, I think.

"Researchers have devised some interesting experiments demonstrating that happy people exhibit a certain quality of openness, a willingness to reach out and help others. They man-aged, for instance, to induce a happy mood in a test subject by arranging to have the person unexpectedly find money in a phone booth. Posing as a stranger, one of the experimenters then walked by and "accidentally" dropped a load of papers. The investigators wanted to see whether the subject would stop to help the stranger"

Ah, so the meaning of life is to find money and that'll make everything better.

i dont think anyone needs to believe in happiness - its an experimental thing, try and live it

Everyone go back to your homes, it's ok! We're all happy so there is no need to worry. Yes, that's right, there is no more war or starvation. Infact there is no more heart disease, cancer or AIDS!

I think there needs to be a balance between happiness and unhappiness. Like, if one was happy all the time how would he or she know what's good and what's shit? "Oh wow, swallowing broken glass, that's great"! Not that being a miserable bastard all the time is good either. I guess I'm all about the yin and yang. Or maybe I'm blabbering on because I'm suffering from a lack of sleep and I also worked at my day job, then I went right to the music store by my house to teach guitar lessons...I was supposed to have six students, but only three showed up so I spent all the extra time learning "Dee" by Randy Rhoads...then I went to a rehearsal and I just got home a little while ago and I had a bowl of Cheerios for supper...they were stale and I wasn't happy about that.
