I prefer the convoluted to the prosaic. (what an obnoxious sentence) However, some days, the simple sweet eloquence of Mary J. is the best poetry. And she is too real when she says "All I really want, is to be happy, to find a love thats mine, it would be so sweet." Before I go any further, let me say this, I am not unhappy. However, lately I 've been wondering, what will make me deeply happy. Soulfully happy. Its deeper than trinkets and longer than flings. Its a feeling more than satisfied. What will bring me lasting happiness? In other words, what do I really want out of life? You know, money, cars, clothes.... what will make me feel truly "successful", satisfied, ect? Any thoughts?
I think part of the reason this question even arises is because I'm looking for a roadmap. I wish there was a travel guide to life, telling you all the sights to see and the dangers you will encounter, and how to get the most bang for your buck. To quote Ani DiFranco, I'm looking for a little red x next to the words, you are here. I'd like to know where all these adventures and mishaps on life are leading me to, so I can prepare my mind and heart accordingly.
