Listening to the thoughts of others

Today I was thinking of all the people I have talked to lately and all the things they have told me. People are not all that different really if you take the time to listen to them and hear what they say to you. We all really have the same basic wants from life... Happiness. It doesn’t matter how we find it or what gives it to us that is all we really want in life. I think it is really interesting to just talk to people and know what truly makes them happy. I think it is good to hear the things bring people happiness. Good to listen to people talk about what they want and the things that will make them happy. Makes you feel closer to the person. Also it will make the person you are listening feel good to share these thoughts.

I also see a caring in people when they share what makes them happy. For some it is about someone really special in their life or a goal to meet the person that will be that someone. Some it is just being healthy again and to do things. So different are the many little dreams, wishes and hopes. All these are reachable and all with the same end. The things will change person to person but that is always the end to it. Happiness!

I don’t care really what a person’s belief is in the world and what comes after it. I know I have my thoughts but really all it is in the end is about being at peace and happy. I think we spend most our life looking for that happiness and clinging to it when we find it if we are lucky enough to. I know it is what I want really so much. I want to find my place and not be lost in this world. I guess I am in envy of those I have talked to that have told me there happiness...

I envy them because I'm still lost in this world a little. I think I am starting to get what makes me happy and it is a day to day thing to figure out. I am still lost though. I don’t know some days what the next will hold. My dreams are still short term and they are getting bigger but slowly. I envy those who know there big goals and their happiness are in sight. I think mine might be but till I find myself and less lost. I'm just not there yet. Just have to take it one day at a time. I guess I am not as close as I thought I was to not being lost... but that is okay walking slowly on this road with eyes wide open and will miss nothing of trip.

Hearing others and seeing their joy talking about their happiness though does give me a lot. It gives me a hope I didn’t have before and that is the hope that one day I will know what my happiness will be and can make that big goal to reach out and get the happiness I want. The happiness that I and everyone else in the world deserves!
