Temporary Happiness

We live our daily lives based off the pleasures of temporary happiness.  Do you beg to differ?  Let me explain to you how this works.  As human beings, we go through a variety of emotions.  At times we are angry, and other times disappointed, frustrated, and although these feelings can also be temporary, it often tends to last a hell of a lot longer than the feeling of being satisfied and happy.

For the most part, we go through our day contempt with the way things are turning out.  We don't fixate so much on the positive things in our lives, but rather the things that troubles us.

So what makes anger, disappointment, frustration and all the things that troubles us stay around longer?  It is the constant worry of not knowing the unexpected, which is why we choose to dwell upon this for so long.

And when something good comes along, then we take it for granted, or become satisfied for just a brief moment in time.  It is not long before the happy feeling runs out, and  before you know it, we return to our everyday normal lives, awaiting for the next great thing that will venture into our life and bring happiness again; but not fixated on when it will happen.
