One Must Imagine Sisyphus Happy Novels & Stories

"When I proudly raised my hand during recitation in class, only to come up with a wrong answer. They mocked me after that. I'm too boastful to be wrong." Napaismid ako nang mahina. "Nakakahiya nga." "My turn." He slightly moved. "Motivation mo in life?" "Perhaps to experience true happiness, one must accept the broken self." I can remember that line clearly. And the activity went on. ***

kanina napakadilim non at nandoon silang lahat at nakatitig saakin, saamin na nasa gitna pala ng malaking silid na nagmistulang paraiso sa ganda ng view, walang dagat na matataw pero dagat ang nasa bintana pinapahid ko ng mga luha ko saka naman huminga ng malalim si nick at parang hindi alam kung papaano sisimulan ang sasabihin nya Nick I stare at her eyes while my hands is trembling, hindi ko alam kung papaano ko sasabihin. papaano ko sisimulan at alam ko sobra sobrang kaba na at surpresa na ng binigay ko lalo na yung sinabi ko na nakidnap ako hindi ko alam bakit ako naniwala kay avignon na walang ibang ginawa kundi ang imagic ang lahat ng bagay pati buhay nya

Hanggang ngayon ay mahimbing parin itong natutulog na may kasamang pag hilik pa, akala mo naman talaga'y pagod. Isinandal ko ang aking likuran at biglang pumsok sa aking isipan ang ni Freliah na nakangiti sa kaniya ng napagka tamis-tamis. Hindi niya maiwasan ang mapangiti ng mag-isa. He doesn't care if someone will see him smiling, the most important to him is imagining his crush while with him happy and contented.

tanong ko rin sa kan’ya. “Just like you, taking it one step at a time. Minsan iniisip ko na I need to be happy in order to move forward. Pero ‘pag naiisip ko na magiging masaya ako ay mas lalo ako na binabagabag ng konsensya ko dahil pakiramdam ko ay wala akong karapatan na maging masaya. After what happened with Cole, hindi na ako puwede na maging masaya.”

pagpapatuloy ko. Nag-smirk muna siya bago niya muling binalik ang tingin sa sunset, “Masyadong maiksi ang buhay para magalit at malungkot. Kailangan lage tayong masaya dahil isang beses lang tayo mabubuhay.” “No,” I calmly responded, “Life is long enough to enjoy it. Be happy and do what you must,” I paused when I sensed his gaze fix at me, “We live everyday and we only die once.”

seryoso nitong sabi. Hindi siya kumibo. “Kasi kung ‘yong huli? Hindi ka magiging masaya,” dagdag pa nito tsaka muling itinuon ang pansin sa harapan. Napaisip siya sa mga sinabi nito. Baka nga tama ito. One should not look for happiness. Dahil wala iyon sa kahit na saang lugar o kahit na anong bagay. It is a state of mind.

Saan kami pupunta? 📍 “I have to force myself even to move my eyeballs. It's so easy just to stare.” -Flora Rheta Schreiber

"I'm insulted at how little you think on what I can do, Femella. You put so little of your faith on someone who is willing to do everything for you." Hindi na ako sumagot pa. Itinuon ko ang nanlalabong tingin sa marmol na sahig. Wala akong lakas ng loob na magtaas ng tingin. "Paano ba tayo nakarating dito? We were so happy the last time," he muttered. "I never thought that happiness could be this volatile." Pumikit ako at hinayaan ang mga luhang mag-unahan sa pagtulo. Hindi ako nagdilat kahit narinig ko ang pagbukas-sara ng pinto.
