Be Happy While You’re at It
Have you ever feel sooo happy that you can’t stop smiling but feeling uneasy at the same time? To me, it happened several times, not much. I can still remember every single moment of those happy times.
I re-watched the final episode of Produce 101 Season 2 for I-don’t-know-how-many-times-already. To talk about the result, we may be disappointed because those who supposed to debut, turned out, failed to make it to the group. As for me, it was okay, since all the trainees I am rooting for made it to the final line up, they will debut soon. I brought it up, because I also feel how happy they are when their names are being called. Even after they sit on their thrones, they made their funny faces, (yeah I would say it was funny, even though they were not doing it intentionally), eyes perfect rounded and mouth opened but can’t hide the happiness the felt, showing how happy they were to hear the surprising result (well, for them).
It is like, “YES, I MADE IT!”, “WOAH, I AM DEBUTING!”, but at the same time, you try to deny because you are afraid that it was just a dream, that the fact you have to face tomorrow is not what you think it would be.
Once, I had a sudden trip with my friends, we said it family back then but I still assume them as home. Sudden things, sometimes, give the best result and leave the biggest impact, right? We were going for a night drive to a city next to ours to refresh our body in bathing place. We joked and sang all along the way. I was so happy to be in that car, to be with them, to be in that moment, that I started smiling continuously and asked God to always keep us that way, I don’t want this to change.
Then, once, I was really happy to have someone close to me, that a friend of him even said that he entrust him to me. For God sake, I didn’t even believe this happening but it happened. I smiled so hard but was about to cry denying things. I was feeling anxious for no reason.
I don’t have to mention about my SBMPTN result, I could say it was the happiest moment of my life.
To think about those happy times, I am so grateful, that God always gives chances to make the best out of me and to create the best memories I could never forget.
Although, most of times things changed.
Things change. People change. But memory remains, doesn’t it?
Despite anything, I am grateful that I was once being happy with thing, people, situation that has totally changed by now.
I would say, it is okay to have anxiety, to feel uneasy, to be afraid, when actually there’s nothing to be afraid of. Happiness is something you create yourself, most people failed to figure out how, and as for me, it is not easily came or created. People need to anticipate every single thing that may come into their lives. So, one thing you should never forget, be happy while you’re at it. Don’t ever let other feelings drag you down when you shouldn’t feel that way. Someday, things may not always go as you wish it would be, but that is tomorrow’s problem that you shouldn’t be bothered by now. Be grateful when you are happy and be forever grateful for what happened into your life.
Then, when things actually changed, you need to be at ease, that you were once happy before everything became this complicated or before human change into a beast.
Whatever comes is coming, whatever leaves is leaving, and whatever remains is remaining.
So, why don’t we just focus on creating happy memories and be happy while we’re at it?
It wasn’t a thing anyone could afford easily that we have to be grateful, we were once living a happy life.
Think positive, it will be easier for you to smile, and it is easier for you to live your life.
