Euphoria

Our company is currently busy with lots of stuffs. One of those is the General Assembly this March. There are lots of things to be prepared, like the pamphlet, the date, the attendees and most especially, the theme. I want to stress on the theme.

I was quite busy as well when they started with their little meeting which includes all the heads. They were talking about one specific word; euphoria. I first heard this word when I was in elementary, I heard my older sister used this word while reading a poem. At that time, I didn't really cared about the term, just that it was good in the ear.

Now, I stopped and thought of the term, like really, euphoria, from the first time I've heard of it up until today, I always associate it with "drugs" For a better understanding and for the sake of defending my association of it to drugs, let me google the definition:

eu·pho·ri·a
yo͞oˈfôrēə/
noun

a feeling or state of intense excitement and happiness. "the euphoria of success will fuel your desire to continue training" synonyms: elation, happiness, joy, delight, glee

I haven't done drugs, it's just the feeling I get from the people in movies or in series  who acts being drug addicts.

Today, I did not feel any joy, I was happy that I was doing many things but it was not glee nor anything that can be connected to euphoria. After realizing it, I stopped, like really, there are things that you are happy but at the same time not.
