Happiness starts within us first! There are many things and people that can help enhance our happiness. If we are not truly happy then there is nothing anyone or anything can do to change it. We must be happy with ourselves and with our life for anyone or anything to enhance that happiness. I know there’s medication out there, but this isn’t always a fix for everything. Medication and drinking alcohol only cover up or hide our true feelings. Our life we make it how we want it, same goes for our happiness and emotions. Does your happiness start with you?
Happiness starts within us first!
If you are not happy with yourself then how could someone else, make you happy. It’s like people who are always bored yet want someone else to fix their boredom. The only way we can be truly happy is it has to start with us. You must be happy with the life you live, the body you are in, and everything around you. Once this is done, when you find that special someone or other things to enhance your happiness. Is there someone or something that makes you happy?
Focus on your own needs and wants.
We always believe that someone else or money will make us happy. The truth is this will never be true. You can have all the money in the world, but this will not make you truly happy. Same goes with you can buy everything in the world and this will not make you truly happy. We have to focus on what we need and what we like. For example, imagine we have someone decide all the food we eat. Yes, we are fed, and the food is good, but what happens when we never get to eat our favorite dishes or eat the food exactly the way we want it? We are fed so we are semi happy but the food we are craving or favorite dishes we never get to enjoy. We need to focus on the food we love so when someone tries to make decisions for us, we speak up and say this is what I truly like or what truly makes me happy. We need to focus on us first because when we have a spouse or significant other, we tend to lose some of us to accommodate the other person. So, while this person helps enhance my happiness, I tend to lose a piece of myself. What makes you happy?
Medication and Alcohol, what’s the difference?
Sometimes people are looking for a way to ease the pain or change their reality. Two ways we do this are by medication or alcohol. Sometimes we need medication so don’t get me wrong. But I feel personally sometimes medicine is not always the answer. Alcohol should never be an answer to have a good time or be happy with yourself. When you let go of the things that are holding you back and put something else in its place you will find more peace and happiness in yourself. For example, if you look everywhere and all you see and feel is darkness and sadness, which happens to a lot of people when we lose a loved one. We must leave that behind. While our love for them will not change but we must focus on moving forward and on ourselves. So, take up running or sightseeing (look at the beautiful scenery or animals). Try to focus on the stuff you never noticed before. No medication or alcohol can do that. Do you think medication or alcohol can make you truly happy?
My time is my way to my happiness!
My time is my way to happiness. I like to do my own thing on my days off or when I get a chance to step away from the family. Now this doesn’t happen often, but just sometimes. I like to make my crafts or if we are camping, I like going for hikes through the woods. I control my happiness by doing my own thing and making myself happy. My family defiantly enhances my happiness same goes with the stuff I own. Everything enhances my happiness, but I am the one who makes myself truly happy. What makes your heart the warmest and happy?
