Bliss . Happiness and other theories.

A moment,a person, maybe your favourite movie or just a cup of hot coffee can make you think of happiness , that positive energy you feel that empowers and makes you feel good and pleased with yourself.

Most of the time , we associate happiness with childhood, our most cheerful memories are in this period of our lifetime when we had no worries (except from school work).

I consider myself fortunate to have lived some incredible moments in my short lifetime. I have met wonderful people with whom I have shared some of my most dear moments. Being in love was one of them , but being loved surpasses the excitement of meeting someone incredibly interesting and falling for him.

I find myself in a state of bliss when I' m finishing a painting( or when I think it's almost perfect , although I know I will certainly change something) , when I achieve a goal, when I connect with someone on a high level or after a long walk by myself.

Last summer I felt the urge to wonder , to walk without thinking and I almost detached myself from the people around me but it lasted only for a sheer moment.

If I were to teach , I would tell my students that happiness is a state of mind and that they ought to experiment this by themselves because feelings, and the state of bliss in particular, can't be expressed in words. A famous author,though, succeeded in describing this life changing feeling and I think of his description when I hear the word "happiness ". Marcel Proust's "madeleine moment " changed the world forever

Another example  which might be more of a chemistry topic is that of altering your normal,functional brain with hallucinogenic substances in search of some kind of revelation. Some have experienced out of this world feelings .

But that is another topic I will write about in another article after some more research. 

Me,myself and I

 First and foremost I should start by telling you something about the author of this blog.

I'm a 20 year old student ,a paint lover (don't imagine I'm sniffing paint all day in the corner of my dorm room, I've just been keen on drawing and painting), a young adult who has dreams and hopes and expects a lot from the world itself but who almost everytime gets disappointed.

I'm just another human being , nothing special, I'm trying to better myself along with this form of habit that now has become virtual. I've kept a diary in my teens but I was never pleased with the way I wrote and so all my daily writing has gone to waste.

Probably, this will be a virtual diary in which I will share feelings, views but also articles and videos I find interesting.
