and surprisingly, i understood. a few days back, mia and i played the same game. we had 3 minutes left to look for one more thing, a stamp. we searched here and there for that one rubber stamp to end the game but couldn't find it. so we used our last hint only to find out that we were supposed to look for a post stamp.
and that's when a thought hit me. nope, this has nothing to do with philosophy anymore (or so i believe).
imagine walking along a path that leads to a barrel of reese's peanut butter cups (or whatever makes you happy. haha)... more often than not, your eyes would probably be on the cups the whole time, without having to realize that the path itself was made up of peanut butter.
you see, sometimes we tend to become too obsessed to find what we think we want, without considering that what we want might just be something else. something completely different. i'd like to think we're far less materialistic than we all seem. what moves us isn't what we want but that unexplainable feeling of content after working hard for it.
happiness, for the lack of a better word.
i think finding happiness has a lot to do about what you think would make you happy and what really makes you happy. the more you're open to the possibility that there's happiness in a lot of things, the easier you'd find what truly makes you smile.
and i hope we all find happiness in the smallest things in this seemingly sad saaaad world. what do you think? =D
