Happiness

I know what you're thinking about the title of this one: so original, right? Well, I did not know what else to call it. There are so many things relating to our happiness these days, it's so crazy. Our home life, our love life, our friends and our jobs. It's all what makes up our life and ultimately, it determines how happy we are. At least, people let it determine how happy they are. What I have realized, is that some people around me are just intensely negative about almost everything. It makes me wonder why they are so unhappy. Is their home life really just that bad? How jealous of everyone else do you have to be to honestly hate your life that much? It is something I go through life everyday feeling curious about. I want to know more about that person and figure out what I can do to make them happier. 

It makes me really sad to see people around me in such a hard place in their lives. I am a naturally happy person and with some recent things going on, I have come to realize what unhappiness can feel like and that sense of negativity has even come out in me a little bit when I am having a bad day. 

Like I talked about in my last post, God's plan for us is much higher than what we could ever dream of ourselves. This is not about us and what we don't have. This is about us and what we do have, what GOD has blessed us with. This is about everything he has done for us and everything he is going to do for us. 

If girls (and guys) slowed down for a minute to take a look at all of the blessings in their lives, the world would be a spinning rock of positivity in space. Happiness is something that is purely self-inflicted, it is something we must not only strive to have, we must embrace it and become it. True happiness is shown by being a beacon of God's light and love. By spreading your joy and what he was and is and is to be, is all it takes.

I understand having your world fall apart around you. It has happened to me, trust me. We have all had our fair shares of tragedy in our lives. But the minute you stop waiting for things to get better and start making the best of the cruddy situation you're in, your life will instantly change for the better. 

So...NO MORE COMPLAINING! NO MORE BOOHOOING! and, STOP BEING JEALOUS. 

Just be you, through and through. You are a princess to everyone who loves you and a role model to those who see you pick yourself up when all hope is lost. God loves you, listen to him and you may hear happiness calling.
