What is "Bliss"?
Bliss is that which you enjoy doing the most. That, without which, your life feels tenuous, tentative, and ineffectual. It is that which you look forward to doing every day. That which, having done it for the day, you feel spent and relieved for awhile, and then soon look forward to doing again tomorrow.
In that way, Bliss has a wonderfully cumulative effect. Each day's joy and satisfaction piles upon those that preceded it, building a mountain of perspective, contentment, and knowledge, upon which the next day's experience is predicated and erected.
Lucky are those who have found and can maintain more than one. It is possible. I've seen it done. But there is always the one that is paramount, without which the others could not function properly.
What is your Bliss?
I do not know. But what matters is whether you know.
For if you are not sure, then you haven't found it.
