Knowing

Ignorance is bliss, and we are cursed. Different levels of knowing. Yet cursed, whatever level. When was the last time you laughed whole-heartedly at something that didn't spell doom for someone else ? When was the last time you laughed with yourself, not at yourself, and not at others' misfortunes ? When was the last time you felt unbridled joy, peace and a sense of calm ? I'll tell you. When you were drunk or stoned. That's how sad we are. And if you don't indulge, I pity you. You're a machine. We're doomed. And happiness begins in acceptance.
