It's funny when you think about it :)

How much things that you're "supposed to feel", perceived-norm-wise, confuse you from what you actually feel. :) Or how the unavoidable quest for knowledge in every person's noggin actually makes 'em lose the higher logic. :)

Taking it from Pausch, we just have to learn to watch what people do. Not what they say. This will leave a lot of the guessing out. Not because people fool each other on purpose all the time, but because sometimes, communicating the truth doesn't rely on honesty. Sometimes the medium becomes the message. And our hearts are simply better communicators than our mouths. It won't always be on purpose, but our words will deceive.

In the end, we all just want to be happy. We do what seems right to get there at any time. This leads us to do fucked up shit, or leaps of faith that actually end tragically, disappointing any hope for a theatrical happy ending. And that's ok. It looks pretty fucked up from the outside, but if you actually try being there, and stick it through, you'll realize that it's ok.

The point is the pursuit of happiness. Not being able to do everything right. :)

And it's such a beautiful thought to realize again and again, each waking day: We're still looking for it. We're still here! :D
