If someone would ask me if I ever feel genuinely happy, I would say yes. I'm genuinely happy when I'm drunk. The alcohol blurs out all worries, erases all problems temporarily, that I am overcome with such joy. The happiness that I feel may be unnatural, the happiness I feel may be unreal, but during those moments, I could truthfully say that I am happy.
Do I ever feel happy without the aid of chemicals in my system? Yeah, I do. I'd usually say I am genuinely happy when I'm at the beach--- such a simple answer, some might even say shallow, but it's true. What can I say, I'm a beach person. :) Every time I see the untouched beauty of nature, I could simply sit down for hours, admiring the view, awed by the splendor right before my eyes, appreciating the peace and quite that seem to be a luxury these days, doing nothing else... and I can still truthfully say I am happy--- genuinely and naturally. :)
