Happiness is satisfaction, not yearning, not suffering.

2025/12/2 Edited to

... Read moreบางทีเราหาความสุขยาก เพราะเผลอเอาความสุขไปผูกกับ “ต้องมีเพิ่ม” ตลอดเวลา พอไม่ได้ดังใจ ก็กลายเป็นทุกข์แบบไม่รู้ตัว เลยชอบคำคมชีวิตความสุขที่ว่า “ความสุขคือความพอใจ ไม่โหยหาก็ไม่เป็นทุกข์” เพราะมันไม่ได้บอกให้เลิกมีเป้าหมาย แต่บอกให้หยุดโหยหาแบบกดดันตัวเอง จากประสบการณ์เรา เวลาที่ทุกข์หนักๆ มักมาจาก 3 อย่างนี้: (1) เปรียบเทียบกับคนอื่น (2) รีบเร่งอยากได้ผลลัพธ์ทันที (3) คิดว่าความสุขต้องสมบูรณ์แบบ พอรู้ตัว เราลองปรับมุมคิดง่ายๆ เช่น ตั้งคำถามกับตัวเองว่า “ตอนนี้เราขาดอะไรจริงๆ หรือแค่อยากเพราะเห็นคนอื่นมี?” แค่ถามให้ชัด ใจจะนิ่งขึ้นเยอะ อีกวิธีที่ช่วยได้คือ “ฝึกพอใจเป็นเรื่องๆ” ไม่ต้องพอใจทั้งชีวิตในวันเดียว เราชอบเริ่มจากเรื่องเล็กๆ เช่น วันนี้ได้กินของอร่อย ได้เดินรับลม ได้คุยกับคนที่สบายใจ เหมือนเก็บแต้มความสุขแบบไม่ต้องใช้เงินเยอะ ถ้ามีโอกาสออกไปดูพระอาทิตย์ตกดิน เห็นทุ่งหญ้า ต้นสน หรือกางเต็นท์แบบเบาๆ (ฟีล Chill Trip Story) มันช่วยรีเซ็ตอารมณ์ดีมาก เพราะธรรมชาติทำให้เรากลับมาอยู่กับปัจจุบัน ถ้าอยากใช้คำคมนี้เป็น “คาถาเตือนใจ” เราลองทำ 2 อย่างคู่กัน: 1) ลดโหยหา: ลดการไถโซเชียลช่วงที่ใจอ่อนแอ เพราะมันชวนเปรียบเทียบ 2) เพิ่มความพอใจ: เขียน 3 สิ่งที่ขอบคุณก่อนนอน (เล็กแค่ไหนก็ได้) สุดท้าย ความพอใจไม่ใช่การยอมแพ้ แต่คือการรู้ว่าเรามีค่าพอแล้วในวันนี้ แล้วค่อยๆ เดินไปหาเป้าหมายแบบไม่ทรมานตัวเอง พอใจเมื่อไหร่ ความสุขก็มาใกล้ขึ้นจริงๆ

A black book cover for "Illusion of Stars" by Sarah Marie Page, featuring white and pink floral designs and crossed swords. Overlay text reads "why this book is NOT for you," indicating a discussion about the book's content and target audience.
This book is not for you
This book is not for you if... 1) YOU WANT SOMETHING SUPER SMUTTY. The romance in Illusion of Stars is primarily driven by emotional connection and yearning, not spice. It's a steamy fade-to-black. 2) YOU WANT YOUR FMCS TO BE THE CHOSEN ONE or secretly a princess or an amazing assassin.

Not a romantasy - a dark fantasy with romance and spice 🌶️
Four reasons romantasy booktok will hate this series: 1. It’s dark fantasy where everyone is lying. 2. The yearning is so painfully long stretched across a dystopian Viking vampire world. 3. It’s based on Vikings and Dracula, not a list of tropes. 4. There’s intense mystery & mythology.

The book cover for Madeline Miller's 'The Song of Achilles' is shown on a textured surface, featuring a heart-shaped bow and arrow. Text describes its 'Olympic level' yearning and heartbreak, mentioning Patroclus.
No yearning? No read.
I need my love stories to HURT a little. I’m not asking for a lot, just two people falling in love slowly, silently, tragically… until they finally admit it in a teary monologue under the stars. Books without yearning just don’t hit the same. I want the tension. The longing. The unspoken moments
