THE GOLDEN TRIGGER ON A FULL-TIME TRAVEL

It’s when you’re sailing a boat, bound to the land of myth a.k.a happiness, when in the middle of it, a sudden crack appeared on your sailboat and you can clearly picture out what will happen next…
..you might find yourself fixing the crack… or maybe, you’ll get terrified the moment you learn that you lack of tools or worst, no tools at all… or perhaps, when you’ve got to realize it can’t be fixed, you will just accept the inevitable chance of drowning… unless you know how to swim…

All the famous quotations and words about happiness simply boils down to one thing… it is found inside us… 

So no matter how far we’ve traveled… nor how long we’ve been on a trip.. Our illusions about happiness  would only give us loads full of disappointments and desperation… It cannot be a place, a person, or a thing to goal for.

I am on a travel…  The travel I am in is not just a one full sitting trip, the road isn’t always straight, sometimes I had to walk miles if the engine shutoff, there were times that I had to take a whole year of flight after. Sometimes a tragic plane crash would happen and before having a time to remember all the emergency instructions demonstrated by the flight crew, I’d found myself stupidly shocked and couldn’t even grab a life jacket or something to survive.  The tendency would either be a crash landing or a water landing. Sometimes I died and later on go back to life again… back to land travel, or maybe swimming against the current…then continue traveling.

As I grew old allowing to continue the whole process over and over again, I grew up realizing that happiness is found along the travel, and the golden trigger to pull is myself.. I figured out there isn’t any specific places to aim, there is only traveling… and it only ends the moment we stop.

I remember one of my school field trip way back before, it’s funny coz nobody choose the seat beside me, maybe for three reasons: first, I don’t talk much. Second, everyone is aware that I only have my famous granny-made egg sandwich for snack and a tetra pack of juice as always and third, my opinions and ideas about things which is usually straight and weird doesn't  suit to their taste.

By the end of the whole trip, those who got all the reasons to enjoy has the most complains. Dana’s unfed tamagochi pet died and made her sad until the next day. Jenny hates her best friend for consuming her camera batteries by taking tons of pictures without her. Our class adviser is freaking and shouting coz the class is hyper happy singing random songs while on the trip all the way long..

It is terrible how some of us couldn’t afford to be happy in the presence of great things, big or small, and it’s funny how we complain in front of  those blessings that others has been longing for.  

We wanted to be happy, we were leaping from one place to another,  but we are never satisfied…

Every time I am about to seize happiness along my travel in life, I would always remind myself that I have an all-knowing one God,  He gave me my own trigger to pull so i can have a shot… 

I can be happy wherever…. whenever I want.
