WHY IS EVERYONE IN LOVE

I think for this one, the title certainly provides a pretty good idea about what this mini rant (preach) is going to be about. 

LOVE. 

And why everyone, EVERYONE, even the fucking guy that wrote the book about Vitamin D that I'm reading, is. And those people are always SO quick, OH SO QUICK, to vocalise the fact that they are blissfully, perpetually head over heels in love. 

I just want to clarify that I'm not jealous or malicious....I swear. 

The dedication of the vitamins book read: 

I dedicate this book to my best friend, colleague, and business partner for more than 37 years, my loving wife Sally who has always been supportive of my career and has been the absolute joy and love of my life. 

When I read the dedication, I had one of those moments where I envisioned exactly what it would have looked like had I been in a film. The close up of the words "love of my life". The camera continues to zoom until the texts fills the screens, becoming more pixilated and distorted as the camera enlarges each letter so that it is no lover recognisable. 

FUCK IT. IM READING ABOUT VITAMIN D WHY THE FUCK DO I NEED TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE A FUCKING AWESOME WOMAN IN YOUR LIFE CALLED SALLY AND THAT SHE IS A COLLEAGUE OF YOURS SO IS THUS IMPLIED TO BE SMART LIKE YOU ARGH. 

Okay..I feel better. But still. Stupid people in love. 

When life gives you lemons- line up the tequila slammers.

Anyone that knows me well knows that constantly, always, I am on the search for happy. Happiness. True bliss that emanates joy and laughter. I imagine happiness to be laughter and fun, a carefree state. With no anxiety. When asked what you want your life to be in 5, 10, 20 years- I've heard many say happy. Is happiness really a perpetual state that can you attain? Or is life forever destined to be somewhat of a roller coaster ride, something that has a mixture of ups and downs, sadness, happiness, binary extremes and all?

I think that the way to attain job and everything that you believe to be great may be a simple hybrid of appreciation and determination. When you appreciate the good in life, and additionally have a passion to get things you want or ensure that you are surrounded by what makes you happy, you may find yourself in a place where the good times out way the bad. People create the values of their lives. Others may make your life happy, but you are responsible for your own happiness.
