What Makes You Happy?
Please list up to 5 things that make you happy.
-Being useful to others
-Sweaty things
-I like sex with chicks. Having sex with babes is a very life affirming activity
-Slightly dangerous or pretty dangerous things
-Above all though, probably living within a tribe I feel I belong to. It's all about sharing you life and time with people
How do you feel when you're happy? *
Lol, uh, happy?
Well actually I the first time I was in a consistent "happy" phase, I guess elation, vibrant, in the "flow," relaxed.
It was a shocker, happiness, I'd only been "content" up to that point.
What is happiness to you? *
Drinking in Essence of Woman, in all its forms.
Well, feeling like a Man too. Handling my biz, protecting/caring for those I love.
In your life, is the pursuit of happiness important to you? *

Happiness is not the point of life, imo. And those that spend their lives searching for it, never find it. It seems Happiness comes about when you are not looking for it but when you are simply being the best human you know how to be. And it often shows up without you realizing it.
So please do try and recognize it, because it is like sand through fingers.
Very mercurial, happiness.
What do you think makes happiness? *
For me, it's freedom and means to do what you want coupled with purpose. Too much freedom has a dark side.
Myself, I've taken it for granted many times and all but thrown it in the trash in search for MORE freedom, MORE happiness, only to find it's gone.
Example: "Love the one your with!!"
Do you think that us as a human species have lost some of our happiness? Why or why not?
I'm so sorry about the repetitive word choice...
On a large scale, humans have devolved into some kind of parasitic bacteria. Greedy, selfish, Disconnected. "Insert virtually any quote from Fight Club."
And why is that?
We've lost our true Nature, which is living in small communities or tribes. The search for independence and freedom from relationships has left us in isolation and/or bogged down in idealism, left us with too much time spent in our minds. A scary place to be for extended periods.
Think violent idealisms, religion, any -isms.
Any additional feedback or thoughts that you have?
Don't worry (Be Happy!). And relax as often as you can, cuz you're gonna die someday, and no one said on their deathbed, "I just wish I had lived a life with more stress."
What do you know about happiness that you feel would contribute to this project?
Read above, it's gold.
