Endorphins are peptides produced in the brain that block the perception of pain and increase feelings of wellbeing.
Life can be hard. People can be let us down and be downright mean to us. Illnesses make us depressed.
We need to do and see things stymy that perception of pain and make us feel better.
Endorphins in our brain do just that. Unleash the kraken! Oops, no.
Unleash the endorphins!
How do we accomplish that? Transform some object, entity, or feeling that saddens us into something that makes us happy.
What brings us down? Orphan socks. For example, a single sock adorned with delightful hula dancers.
What makes us happy? Uniting two ORPan socks to reconstitute a Pair of socks.
Now, we’re cooking with gas. Let the great endORPHIN event begin.
If only there were a word to describe this endorphin flood. And now we have.

Yes, Jill Y, I am indeed happy and it’s all because of my new headphones with Porphin technology that lets me listen to music whilst blocking Bon Jovi.
