‘THOSE WHO SPEAK OF HAPPINESS OFTEN HAVE SAD EYES.’

LOUIS ARAGON

Faced with the fleeting, intermittent nature of happiness, our recourse to aversion or obsession, those two forms of fear, reflects how hard it is for us to accept that our emotional life cannot be stabilised and regulated at will. Some prefer to take permanent refuge in gloom and regard all efforts to arouse or accept happiness with suspicion, maintaining a low but stable state. Others try to remain on a permanent high through constant doses of pleasure. Both approaches lead to denial and weariness, and they are such a waste, since there are so many more fruitful battles to be fought.

Accepting happiness also means learning to accept the pain of its disappearance.
