I’m back to watching more television than I did during my trip. Sure, they’re “quality” programs but it’s television regardless. I’m not listening to Filipino radio stations these days. I’m not reading as much as I did during my trip. Damn television. I’m probably not exploring as much as I should either.
The trick to being happy, regardless of where I am, is to have the ability to think of everyday as new. The challenge is to wake up everyday wondering, with anticipation, what the next twenty-four hours are going hold for me. Life is out there. Happiness for me lies in the effort needed to go after it.
It’s not that hard, really. Happiness just requires a change in perspective.
