I want to be clear that, I do not have it all figured out.  I am very new on this path to self-discovery and the identification of my happy!  However, one thing that I have learned, is that I am the ONLY one…THE ONLIEST one, that is in control of my happiness.  Regardless of circumstance, regardless of the past, regardless of what society tells me, regardless of what I learned growing up…I am the only one that can control if I’m happy.  You have got to put pen to paper to brainstorm and explore what makes you happy.  You have to make happiness action plans.  If you don’t, then YOU are the reason that you are unhappy.

If this stings, I will not apologize.  I am not going to be sorry or ashamed, any longer, for what I know is right.  We find ourselves judging others on their “high horses” because cockiness is unacceptable in today’s world.  But why?  Why is it not OK to be cocky?  If you are confident in what you do, what you feel, what you say….why is that a bad thing?

If you can help, but 1 person, understand how to be the best version of themselves according to THEIR terms, why is that not OK?

Screw society!  Screw what our “friends” think.  Screw what our “friends of friends” think!

If we are the only ones in control of our happiness (happy defined as feeling pleasure…FEELING…who FEEL’S? YOU!!!) then why give a durn about anyone else’s opinion of that?

Find your unconditional love for yourself in order to find your happiness. UNCONDITIONAL!  A friend recently reminded me of the fact that, sometimes, the love she feels has conditions.  These words broke my heart.  Mostly because I reflected on myself and related to what she was saying.  Those are powerful terms.  To think that love had conditions…Love is defined as an intense FEELING of deep affection… to think that a FEELING had CONDITIONS!?!? Erroneous!

Find your unconditional love for yourself, regardless of your past or what you’re told to feel.  Once you do that, that’s when you find your happy!

Bye for now,
