You don’t need other people to find happiness

Be yourself everybody else is taken.

The pursuit of happiness is a lonely journey that nobody can take for you. Some people try to find it by moving from job to job or from person to person; Of course, they will never find happiness that way. Happiness is a state of mind brought about through understanding what happiness is; happiness is not running around with a smile on your face, happiness is walking at your pace with a smile inside you that everybody in your presence can feel even when they cannot see it because happiness is a feeling, not an observation.

True happiness comes with acceptance; accepting everything is perfect just as it is today, nothing is out-of-place, everything you experienced in your whole life, the good, bad and ugly was meant to happen exactly the way it did happen in order to build up your character for the obstacles you will face in your future.

You are responsible for your happiness, if anybody else can take your happiness away, you’ve not found happiness yet.

Remember: There are no obstacles you cannot get around, over or through when you are comfortable being you.
