I want to be happy...
Michael Leunig presents us with seven types of ordinary happiness:
1. Secret Happiness which is steady but beautifully delicate.
2. Three minutes of happiness borrowed from a dog.
3. Traditional lying down happiness
4. The happiness which comes from staring at a rock.
5. Happiness blended with a mysterious sadness.
6. The strange happiness associated with seeing a meteorite or shooting star.
7. Diffuse, residual happiness resulting from rhythmic domestic tasks such as washing the dishes.
Have you felt any of these types of happiness recently? I have...
but...
I'm so greedy. I want more.
I want to be so much happier than this.
I want to be EXTRAordinarily happy...
and wanting it so much kinda makes me a little sad... :(
