“MANIC”
Are you beyond happiness and sorrow?
Is your life, your day a series of peaks and borrows.
One minute you’re ecstatic, on top of the world.
Next minute you’re depress, into a little ball you curl.
If you are up and down, even a little, you probably feel nothings wrong.
The swings between such extremes have been with you so long.
But you don’t need the ups and downs, to make you feel alive.
Until you’re able to control your emotions, know answer can be derived.
In fact the ups you call happiness are not happiness in any way.
But a false interpretation of happiness, this sense of happiness you display.
Real happiness is not the result of rising out of depression.
Real happiness is stable, constant, and not dependent on interpretation.
Sometimes we call it contentment or serenity or joy.
Not excitement, that leads to depression, happiness just is, a child with a toy.
It’s hard to imagine contentment after a life of highs and lows.
Some people choose not to change and live with their woes.
This is called addiction, a choice of just existence.
To live life instinctively to the path of least resistance.
The ups are dependent on the downs and of course that’s visa-versa.
For real happiness don’t self-indulge, be compassionate, have purpose.
