People always say that life can never be perfect, that you can never be totally happy. This does seem to be true, but one of the biggest reasons is something you probably wouldn't expect. Most of the time a person isn't completely happy because things are wrong. Maybe there is a fight going on or a loved one has passed away. But what about when that doesn't exist? What about when everything is okay, why are we still not happy?
The answer to that is because you don't know. You don't realize that everything is okay. This is because the brain makes things up, creates problems that may not truly exist. It starts to read into things that don't mean anything. Your brain and heart become worried about nonexistent problems. For example someone stops texting you without giving you a reason. It doesn't mean that they don't care about you or love you or whatever, they still feel the same and everything is okay. Yet you think somethings wrong. Your stomach churns that nervous shitty feeling that things are not good. It makes you upset and even when your friends help you to feel better it does not go away. All you need to do is stop and think rationally. Realize there is nothing wrong and believe yourself that its true that life's good. Realize it's a made up feeling and you will experience happiness for longer than the usual natural high. This is hard to do though because life was made to be imperfect. I've known this idea of made up suffering for a while and yet i still find it a tall task to get by, but someday i will and that will give me periods of time of true happiness, however long or short that time is it is worth it. No life still won't be perfection, but having true happiness for a time is definitely a great thing to achieve.
