Have you ever been asked this question? Have you ever really thought about it? How many of us go through life day to day just trying to make it through? How many of us paint a picture in our minds of an alternate world where everything is picture perfect, when in reality life IS that "box of chocolates"? That delightful little box that we know contains a few pieces that we are allergic to... or, that we just don't like.
If you know me then you know I am a chocoholic! I love good, rich, dark chocolate. Often times I will visit a "Godiva" store and custom choose each and every delectable little piece. Other times someone will "gift" me a box. And therein lays my dilemma.
Am I unappreciative for spitting out the chocolates that taste awful to me? Should I eat each and every piece because it was a gift? Should I just pass the entire box on... you know, regift? Just as in life, what would make me happy? What would I be comfortable with? Do I choose comfort over happy or happy over comfort?
Do we just "exist"? Simply going through the day to day motions. Or... Do we live! Knowing that in today's world any day can be our last day. I choose HAPPY! I choose to search for HAPPY... CHASE HAPPY... LOVE HAPPY. I choose to let it be known what makes me happy. And I choose to let it be known what makes me unhappy. Because only then will I be happy and not just "comfortable!"
"HAPPY" is as "HAPPY" does!
