indifference

"once you accept indifference jo, you'll be a lot happier. it's the key to happiness".

i know i butchered the quote but i get the point, you get the point.

when i get excited about seeing a really cute doggie waddle, or have a really productive day at work, or take a picture - exactly how i pictured it in my mind - the last thing i think about is someone being indifferent about it. it's selfish. i know. it's a tad narcissistic. i admit it. but honestly that's how my brain works. and to share something i'm excited about. whether visually and/or verbally, i hope that my excitement and my enthusiasm accentuate it. can't my happiness create a happiness in you? isn't a smile contagious? or are you saying those bumper stickers are a lie...yes that leads to disappointment. yes that leads to occasional let downs but it's what i do, it's what i did. and that explains a lot. does it change anything? honestly - probably not. indifference is the key to my unhappiness.
