Happy in Unhappy

A new season is around the corner, Spring 2013! The Sun is back in full force and the girls are already wearing their shades just cannot wait for the hot summer Sun. I for one I am happy the Sun is back and there is something symbolic and fascinating about a new month,a new season. I feel like a brand new me is ready to come out,but don't we love to tell ourselves that or am I the only one who makes a time table,divide my hours tell myself that and this,is what I will do,I am going to make it happen,before you even get going there is already a bump in the plans. BOOM. There is a challenge out of nowhere. There is nothing I love more than a plan coming together,maybe that is why I love it;its because it is such a rare occasion.It makes me feel like a happy person stuck in the unhappy. Now I understand the pursuit of happiness. There is the unhappy waiting to happen to upset everything. 

I was in the bus the other day minding my own business lost in my billion thoughts. Sometimes when I look around in a bus,metro,whatever public transport I feel we are all robots just going on with life not knowing what to expect but hope,pray,believe to have a great day and come back home happy. So there I was in the bus and my line of thought was disturbed I look to my side because the disturbance came from my bag. I see this hand in my bag going through my bag. I could not believe it. Before I could scream or shout the man removed his hand. In my bag there was my purse,my passport,bank card,student card all in one place. I was so shocked I just closed my zip and put my bag in front of me,I kept quiet and the thief who almost got away dropped of at the next bus stop. Now I am over the incident,this man was not only going to get away with my documents,but he was going to rob a piece of my happiness,I was this close to being bombed by the unhappy to being helpless for a second. He did not stop to consider that I was a student,a female,what I was going to go through to recover my documents or what I had gone through to get them,he was a man on a mission. 

How desperate the pursuit of survival and happiness has made humanity. I for one I am happy that he did not go through with his plans but it made me see that sometimes we all want to be happy,to achieve,to win,to conquer,to prosper,to survive,to make our families,friends and ourselves proud. I realized that some people are willing and able to make others suffer,destroy,cheat,steal,corrupt to achieve their own happiness. I realized too that you have to fight to be happy,happiness is not a door that you can just open and walk in. Protect your dream,your happiness, be alert,unhappy is mischievously waiting and ready to take it away. We  want to be happy but sometimes it does not feel or look that way because we are stuck in the unhappy with the unhappy too.
