Afraid to be Happy
November 13, 2007Have you ever had that feeling of being happy yet so insecure about what might happen afterwards?
For those who have gone through so much pain, you would surely know the feeling of being so afraid to go back to that phase of your life again (if in fact you have actually recovered from it already). That whenever there is reason for you to smile and laugh again, a voice in your head would ask how much tears would you have to shed after that moment of joy.
I never thought happiness can be something to be scared about. But now, I know that it can, in a way, frighten you. Sometimes, it is just better to ignore that little cautious voice inside you and set yourself free. Hence my aphorism—Ignorance is bliss.
