"In America, we're pressured to be happy" -a morning talk show
In the eyes of psychologists, I'm probably suffering from depression, I'm not sure, I haven't really checked what my metal diagnosis would be but the truth is, my happiness is tainted. One of the reasons why I don't like to show many people my true face is because I know they won't understand (sounds like every other story, but let me explain). I enjoy being what others call "sad" because my state of happiness is in a relaxed peaceful, but thoughtful state of mind, which often gets confused with sadness. I enjoy rainy or misty days where I sit alone, or accompanied, and just contemplate about my life, others, and the world. I enjoy the night life. I enjoy sitting in silence and doing nothing sometimes. In ways, you could say I enjoy being lazy. But such a mentality is an anomaly in American society. You must achieve! You must be happy and smile! Sunny days are awesome! Makes me wonder sometimes, is my happiness really happiness or do I really need a reality check?
