And sometimes we feel happiness goes for a long walk out of the mind, making room for more feelings to fight and take its place. Fighting to be as strong, to feel as powerful as that resounding laughter that now feels like an echo in a far off place. But happiness might not really be gone forever. Sometimes it lurks around in other minds surrounding you. In the faces of friends who show up, peeping inside yours too through their presence. Waiting to see if you're ready, to acknowledge its presence, to not ignore it for once. It lurks around waiting patiently, as we weep and scream, wanting it so badly, assuming it's gone forever. Knowing little that it waits to sneak in when we take a break from drowning ourselves in all of these emotions. Waiting to hug out the raging heat from all the hurt and anger. It might not feel like it now, but happiness might be right around the corner waiting to sneak up on you. The next time you think it's taken a walk, just remember to take a break long enough and a breath deep enough to give it just enough time to walk right back to you.
When was the last time you stood on a cliff with nothing but peaceful silence filling your being? When was the last time you took a breath and felt it coursing through your body, awakening you, slowing you down from the loud thoughts that consume you? When was the last time you stood barefoot on dewey grass listening to the wind husling leaves on a nearby tree and birds whistling along? When was the last time you watched the setting sun, eyes transfixed, smiling to yourself, and an indescribable sense of contentment filling your soul? Tell me, when was the last time you lived a little? #losangeles #sunsets #hollywood #visitla #trottertales #latergram #sunsetdiaries #travelgram #pixelphotography #teampixel #goldenhour #lasunset #laborday #weekendgetaway #labordayweekend
