Imagine ot having a word for something.

[mollykins]

describe happiness, without using any variation of the word or any synonym?

I can't, and i'm in a similar situation with something i can't describe as i haven't got a word for it.

[NoMercy]

I suppose joy and elation won't count....

[ChuckFickens]

ok I'm imagining it, now what?

[NoMercy]

What is the thing you can't describe, btw? Maybe someone can come up with a word for you...

[ChuckFickens]

"What is the thing you can't describe"

Errr, surely if she told us that would be describing it :)

[beejay1124]

dingleberry ?

[NoMercy]

Now listen up, Chuckadoodledoo... she is probably looking for a one-word description... if she gives us a brief outline, we may come up with the perfect word ! Nothing is insurmountable, is it....

[Jumbuck]

None of these will suffice?

i don't know thats the point, by the way if you can think of a way of describing happiness without a synonym or variation of the word write it down please.

I felt lightheaded for a couple of days and i've got to go the addenbrookes hospital but its no use if i can't describe i how i feel to the doctor.

[mollykins]

But by using something that most people feel a lot and putting you in that situation, its putting my situation into the perspective.

[cazzz1975]

euphoria?

[sara3]

elated?

[mollykins]

tehy're synonyms though aren't they. i said no synonyms or variations of the word such as happy or happily ect.

[mollykins]

yeah you're right chuck.

[Jumbuck]

Nirvana

[ChuckFickens]

Good band ^

[mollykins]

Jumbuck yours are quite good but one's a bit iffy.

[mollykins]

well they're all a bit iffy, but the best is being in a state of well-being.

[NoMercy]

I thought Nirvana was a heightened state of awareness or enlightenment...

[mollykins]

but well being is a kind of synonym
