The Pursuit
Life is all about the pursuit of “Melancholy Bliss”.
You finally experienced a miracle. You finally got the drive to do something you had been postponing doing.
In this so-called “hustle”, you realised that what you thought wanted all along wasn't actually what you liked.
This is a piece I wrote some years ago when I was confused and did not know what I truly enjoyed. I still don’t, but that is the beauty of life. We will always preach what I call “Melancholy bliss”. We will never be only happy or only sad. Life is a mixture of both these emotions. What we all need to find is what combination of these emotions are we the most comfortable with.
Please enjoy this short piece :).
“Something extraordinary transpires,
Satiates all my desires
A new feeling sweeps.
I, wander about seeking happiness.
In the quest, I heard
A pleasing yet jarring note
Meaningless but meaningful.
Following it, I reached
Created a niche
Trapped there! I preach Melancholy Bliss.”
Hope you find your optimal mixture of emotions. All the Best! :)
