Happiness, laughter, and cheerfulness is not all that life should be about. What lay in the vitality of human beings is compassion and authenticity. To be able to look at my own tears and tell myself that it is ok to not be happy and cheerful, and that to be in a depressive episode is not living without dignity, and realizing that Everything is transient…it has carried me to a hopeless but brand new beginning.

Additional random thoughts…this is reminding me of Brave New World and Man’s Search for Meaning. Happiness is an emotion, not a permanent state. Life’s meaning or goal is not to be as happy as possible from birth to death, it’s also about pain, suffering, loss, gratitude, sorrow, solitude, …to be human, to be alive, and to be truthful to ourselves is to experience this wide range of human experiences.
