Quotes: The Illusion Of Happiness
We are all so unaware of the illusion of happiness.
The illusion keeps people safe and, let’s be honest, nobody really likes to question anything.
The human condition is the pursuit of comfort, and tampering with that is an unwise thing to do, especially by the standards of our anti-culture.
We run from truth and leech on comfort to keep things appealing while the appeal can still exist. Some people love to be drunk, but hate to be hung over.
Some people love to be in love, but hate to be broken. So they don’t look at the possibility of a negative reality.
They just accept what is there (or make up what’s there) and only look towards warmth, even if the heat is synthetic.
That’s what we’re trained to do, so we all do it without question.
