Anyway, part of the inspiration for the title "Pursuit of happiness and other life adventures" was, admittedly from a Kid Cudi song: "Pursuit of happiness". This and the fact that I was bound and determined to continue my adventure seeking behavior and write about said adventures.
While the title got the message across, that happiness was important to my stories, it has always bothered me a little, because to me happiness isn't the destination, it's the process I'm writing about. If I were to be really happy then wouldn't I be enjoying the whole thing? Every once and a while, when Kid Cudi plays from my ipod, I revisit this concept. However, lacking in creativity, I eventually stopped worrying about it as my blog title and figured a better one would come to me one day.
Well ladies and gentleman, it finally came to me, on a bus, where I do my best thinking. I figured my life has been more about my pursuit of adventure and the happiness (or any thing otherwise) that comes from it, not the adventure that comes from trying to find happiness! Done... By switching the only two words I could for it to still makes sense, it finally encapsulates why I do what I do and write about it. I was never looking for happiness like it was elusive or hard to find. I knew it had to come from me and by living the life I love, which just so happens to be full of little and big adventures I enjoy writing about.
So from here on out, until it's not cool anymore, I have officially changed my blog title. That is all. Thank you for your time and for caring about my adventures.
