Your happiness is your own, most of the time people don't get you, especially if you don't fit in their standards and you don't have to. People will always try to find fault no matter how hard you try, so don't even try. Do your own thing, you are not the definition of what others think of you. Your happiness will not be measured by the things you have and the things you don't, until you truly feel how the word " I don't care" feels like, it's when you know.

Happiness is more than simply a positive mood. Happiness is a state of well- being that encompasses living a good life that is, with a sense of meaning and deep satisfaction. Research shows that happiness is not the result of bouncing from one joy to the next; achieving happiness typically involves times of considerable discomfort. In psychology, happiness is a mental state of well-being which can be defined by, among others, positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.

Keep it simple as most people say, but simplicity is quite hard. You have to sift through the situation, people, and things that truly matter to you and focus on what you wanted in your life. At many times you try to move on, the load feels like heavier and heavier every time, you fight so hard to let go, even if it cuts you as you go. And in many ways than one, the memories came back and you create scenes in your head that were negative.

You have to keep fighting for yourself especially at times when the people you care about were gone. Life crashes on us every day, just in many different ways, could be within us and could be outside of us. It's easy to give someone or ask someone an advice but to actually make a decision is another thing to do. There was too much talk around but do you hear your own voice?
