E. euphoria

"Reader! Don't you wonder sometimes about why certain changes in the meaning of words happened? For example, although usually to clean something supposedly is something positive, the word 'brainwashing' means something negative. And although it's simply a wrong use of words nobody makes an effort to 'clean' that up. To wash your brain should be considered something positive, right? Any meditation does that. Like all the negative (self-)talk gets washed out, all your mental violence etc. Isn't it rather 'brain pollution' which we don't want, including other people trying to put something into our brains which we don't want? (Actually, who agreed to the permanent brain and sensual pollution of politicians, the media and the like?) Listen to this word: 'euphoria'. Does it have some kind of negative connotation for you, Reader? Like being in an 'euphoric' mood makes you at least a bit hysterical if not outright crazy. Now, compare this with the word's roots: coming from Greek it means as much as 'carrying' something 'light, beautiful'. And what's wrong with that? you might ask. Maybe it felt wrong to some Protestant moralists or any other moralists for that matter who believe that 'life is hard' and never should be taken easy. Reader, just for today I'd like to encourage you to get into a really positive mind-soul-and body frame, to carry 'it' lightly and, if you want, to dance in the streets. Why don't you let go of any sour and dour approach to life? . . . just drop it . . "
