A Room Without A Roof.

Reminiscing about an experience eight years ago; I walked in on an older friend listening to the "happy" song and I wondered how sad she was. Why would you need a song to remind you to stay happy? I asked. All she said was "when you grow older, you'll understand". Of course I waved her response off and continued like nothing happened. That was the first time I heard the happy song and eight years later, I listen to it almost everyday. Why? Am I that sad?

Life without sadness, hassles and turbulence would be like spring without flowers. We are humans and once in a while, we all hit rock bottom. It is totally okay to hit rock bottom but your next move usually determines our future. Do you get comfortable at the rock bottom or you fight your way back to victory.

This week has been one very terrible week in my life but the fact that I somehow managed to stay afloat baffles me. During such times, I usually retreat into a corner and stay there for a very long time but this time I decided that there was no running or hiding. First it was the issue with my laptop, followed by the overwhelming stress from school somewhere along the line, food poisoning found its way to the unending list of torture and for days on end I was in so much pain. My heart ached and my tummy ached too.

With each passing day, I laid on my bed, wondering what the future had in store. These thinking sessions were always accompanied by the tune from the happy song. Keeping a positive mind in your lowest times is a really hard thing to do but I managed to.

This is one song that manages to get me moving even when I don't feel like it. The lyrics are really encouraging and the beats are so lively. I feel like Pharrell Williams has greatly contributed to humanity by just releasing this song. Imagine how many people jam to this song each day.
