it dissolved and coursed throughout my bloodstream. i felt like i was walking underwater, the anger and the sadness that constantly loomed over me vanished before i could put a finger on where they'd gone. my demons were silent and i felt like the ocean. the feeling was strong yet subtle, like i was being embraced in a warm, ongoing hug. no one specific emotion overtook me, i was more at peace than i'd probably ever been in my entire life. this was the feeling i'd been searching for.
"are you happy?" "nothing to be mad about. i'm mediocre." people reach this point in their lives where they stop searching for happiness, if they ever searched at all. they decide mediocre is enough they fall into a rabbit hole of someday's and maybe's, the for more and better begins to dwindle until they've grown comfortable with being just being alive instead of living.
