Happiness through activity: lost
Did you know you could be sad eating ice cream? Have you ever been doing something and just the activity alone is associated with happiness. Like mini golfing or bowling or arcade games. Or something as simple as having ice cream. Then you get a text or phone call. Your stomach drops. And time freezes until that single drop of ice cream hits your hand and your snapped back to time very much unfrozen. I was eating ice cream when I heard the news. And now all I can think is this poor woman. She has lost her son to cancer before he turned 20. And only a meer 7.5 months later loses the love of her life. And I'm sitting here. Trying to eat my ice cream. But am simply unable because I can. I longer enjoy the happiness of the act during this time.
