The Pursuit Of Happiness
Updated: Mar 4, 2022
In this country,
the pursuit of happiness
is often mistaken
for the pursuit
of personal
pleasure.
The problem is,
pleasure does not equal happiness.
It is only
a temporary fix,
that leaves us,
unfulfilled.
And too often
we’re in a constant state
of seeking
more
and
more
pleasure.
This leaves us feeling
emptier
and emptier.
We seem to forget
our freedom
comes with responsibility.
-C.H.
