observatory
and then I went around the city with a camera and ask people I met if they wanted to get into the game and answer 10 questions. observed the behavior of people, their reactions, their blocks or their interest, to observe the different attitudes in according to situations, if the guinea pig was alone or accompanied, if flaunted safety or embarrassment. I wanted to penetrate the thoughts and emotions of those who live around me.
The first question was simple, easy, easy you happy?
but the second is happiness? usually generates a look out of place, completely unprepared to respond really esaudiente. perhaps some will realize only then that they had not asked those questions never assuming to know the answer. many people confuse happiness with pleasure or with serotonin, others have a rough idea, the most cunning believe is a good fleeting, elusive, others regard the argument as a question for adolescent identity crisis and do not go even to think their every gesture and action is consciously aimed at obtaining it (without But be aware of what you want to get).
let's face it, every man longs to be happy, but being bombarded with bullshit rarely have the chance to learn how to be. and it is not any book by a psychologist talk show on the shelf of the shopping center that will restore peace to the modern man.
the best answer, but by simple implicit meanings he has given me a English boy of 20 years. had left Barcelona with a backpack and little money and had come to Italy for a trip a few months. shaven, with a light vest, sitting cross-legged with his eyes full of love for all things on which rested his eyes, looking like a monaco Theravada. told me in an Italian approximate happiness is to be happy even when you are sad
