you

There is no searching where feelings are involved. It does not matter if the feelings one has about another are positive or negative. The only thing that truely does matter is your level of happiness inside. What has happened in our social world is that we are not taught to be happy inside. We are taught to go to school and then work regardless of what or why. We are bombarded with rules and regulations from another time and often another place. Those rules only apply in some cases and reasonings, but in the long haul the rules and players of the game have changed; they must change in order for any form of progression can take place. Searching for one unified strategy to deal with the issue of happiness would run counter to the already formulated social ways we all know so well. Think about the possibilities if we were to socially incorporate into our school system a new way of viewing the world; a way in which self expression and individuality is encouraged through the arts and sciences. There are many people who are delighted with the idea of studying these things in great depth and through their enthusiastic participation in that which brings them the most joy, I can see young people kicking open new doors in the arts and sciences as a form of expression rather than repression through societal encouragements of sameness and shameless that are thrust upon us all from an early age. This is deceit in its most common form and we are all good at it, especially when we talk with ourselves. There can be no search for something that burns and yearns on the inside; that sensation can be altered to form, but it can never be anything other than what it is to you and that can never be taught; it can only be encouraged through positive dialogue of the same, through the same, by the same.
