It's troubled me a lot recently, and very apparent, that it seems people are being forced to be happy. And we seem to shun upset and sad people from public view, depending on the circumstance, almost a double standard.

I think all emotions are valid , here , in real life and anywhere.

Why is it necessary to hide and censor when we're angry with something or someone?

Why must I be happy all the time? Grumpy? Oh no! give him a pill!!


Sad? oh no can't have that , give her a pill!!

I mean?... is it me or is this politically correct emotional control?

Are we so anti-emo now?.... I am curious...?

I live in my own little world, but it's ok they know me here.
