Unconventional Happiness
i just talked to a guy friend the other day over the phone. the office phone. hehe. it was a shame i cried by the mid part of our conversation:
friend: enjoy your life. your 26 so young. dont waste your life whining over things you have no control of. be happy on your own. dont depend your happiness on people or things.
(then I burst to tears)
friend: oh bakit ka umiiyak??
me: because i don't know how to do what you're saying: be happy without the people and things that i love.
***
so how does one become happy when people you love and need, like your family or partner, just arent around?
how does one remain happy when things go wrong?
when your bf loves you but can't do anything for you? when you finally break up? when your parents separate. when you miss your brother who's been away for a loong time? when you're bored or pressured at work?
How does one become happy when you think you're left behind.
or just plainly alone?
how can i be possibly be happy on my own?
