Human Nature 1-19-09

Happiness is self-delusion
As is every emotion
To evade and shape our lives
Whenever we follow a notion
Loss can be countered by laughter
Joy can be oppressed by fear
It's all in the thoughts we make
As we will any one to appear

    It's kind of funny isn't it it that when we are happy we cry and when sad we cry. We're scared of unknown things yet scared of things that can shape our future.

    You portrayed it well. Love the first line because happiness is what you make it :)
