Stop eyeglass slipping with these next generation eyewear retainers

If you’re depressed because your life is in a rut, then it’s time to sit down in front of pad and pen and oh yeah make yourself some tea. Refrain from alcohol.

Turn off the cellphone too.

You’re down, that’s understandable. You’re not alone. A lot of people feel that way.

Part of the reason is our concept of happiness. Or rather, the concepts of happiness we have been indoctrinated with.

We’ve grown up, and all our lives we’ve been bombarded with messages of what we need to be happy, what we need to feel fulfilled.

And subconsciously we take them in, even though if we were to think about them in the clear light of consciousness, we’d see how ridiculous a new pair of running shoes is towards making us feel whole.

But it happens.

TV, magazines, popular media.

But it doesn’t stop there.

Our parents, relatives, friends…they all have suggestions for us. Get married, that will make you happy. Have children, that will make you happy.

In most cases, it’s what will make them happy.

So stop the insanity for a bit and just think.

In the last 6 months what’s made you happy.

Re-reading Wuthering Heights. That made you happy. The first time around, when you were in high school you didn’t really read it. You skimmed it. Back then education wasn’t a priority.

It still isn’t. But now you’re interested in self-development. You still believe popular education is pathetic.

And oh yeah, you’re happy with the Keepons you bought. They’re amazing. Before you got them you were miserable. Your glasses kept slipping and that made you feel so…small, unattractive, defective.

So you ordered them and it only cost $6. Hehe. Amazing, and that included free shipping and tracking number.

What a deal because in retrospect, even though you can’t put a price on happiness, $6 is really a small price to pay for happiness.
