Happiness is a bit on the relative side isn't it? Are we talking about the carefree part of life where you just feel like you can take on the world? I haven't felt like that in such a long time, probably not since I was a kid. It all goes back to the fact that I was born tense. Are we talking about the kind of happy that makes you smile without you even realizing it? Sometimes I think I feel that way but those moments are few and far between, or the happy to be alive? I am and I'm happy that Sawyer's doing better and Michael and Jin aren't hurt. There's another side to this happiness coin; Shannon's dead and Walt is missing. It's hard to let the happiness in when the dark cloud follows just behind it. The day Boone died Aaron was born, life for a life?
It's the simplistic kind of happiness that I feel most often, I'm not talking about things with huge consequences or hope for rescue. No, I'm talking about the little things – when Hurley gave everyone food from the hatch and you could see the looks on their face, that's happiness. When I played golf with Kate and managed to forget all the troubles the island held for just those few minutes. Happiness.
I can't really say I'm happy about anything in particular right now. I'm just happy about all the little things.
