I have recently been posting about happiness that seems to be the hottest thing happening to me as many things eventually are leading to it. Either directly to my happiness or happiness to others.
My LBC post also talked about happiness of a different kind, a state of mind despite hardships which triggered off quite a few nostalgic comments, and took me some time to appreciate that small things that we take for granted in our youth become such triggers in later life.
So, a reality check was very necessary and I found exactly that in this cartoon yesterday! Please click on the image for a larger resolution.
How practical!
On the other hand, there are people out there who must find their happiness in discovering and sharing such totally useless information with others.
I am going to spend the rest of the evening wondering if that sentence really is the only one that can be read both ways in English … along with how to prove or disprove the assertion.

There see how much happiness that it gave me to have been able to bug you.
I love discovering and sharing useless information! But it’s not my only source of joy.

There that confession gives me great satisfaction that I was able to elicit it from you.
If you would like to make a lot of people happy, then set up a blog for Chutki. She’s going to need help getting started, I’m sure.

The son and heir is working on it. She is his daughter.
It’s been a while since I was truly happy so I probably shouldn’t weigh in on this. But, since I haven’t given up on happiness I’ll say that once you’ve experienced real happiness it’s amazing how easy you can recognize the faux version. The trick is to keep moving forward – nothing increases your chances more than hanging out with happy folk – I’m told smiles are contagious. Some folks I know are patient zero in that regard and good on them!

Since it has been a while and that it has taught you to recognise the faux version, you will increasingly start to experience it .
Too funny. Thanks for the laugh, Rummy.

My pleasure Maxi.
“sharing such totally useless information with others” .. I’m always doing it, but I’m not sure that it makes me happy: I just feel superior ! … 😉
Big John recently posted..By my troth, t’was so !
And feeling superior does not make you happy?
Thank Chutki for commenting on my blog! It didn’t appear right away because the first comment from a person needed to be approved. I’m guessing this one might not show up immediately, too.
Are you really going to help her set up her blog? That would be great.
Yes. All going well, the blog should go live next week.
Yay, Chutki! Yay, Rummuser!
Thank you from both of us.
