Good morning my dear friends,
Short and sweet today…
As long as you are relying on someone or something outside of you to make you happy, you will never be happy.
The period of happiness that you gain from the thing or person, (especially the person) is determined by how much they live according to your values, how much they live to your expectations and how long they live according to your lopsided perception of them being “only good”. (nice without mean, sweet without cruel etc)
Expectations, values and perceptions are always broken and lead to disappointment, pain and unhappiness. Never let anyone become the reason for your smile and happiness. it is often said that when you make someone your everything when they leave you have nothing.
Real happiness comes from a place deep inside of you. You are the source of you happiness. And because the real YOU is an infinite source of love, you can be assured that this happiness will always be available for you. If you can find the same qualities in you that you find in “them” that make you happy or that you love – then you have unlocked the door to self-worth, self-value and self-love. The moment you own the traits, “they” become inseparable from you in the fact that what they are, is in you. There is no room for disappointment and unhappiness now.
Again – its all about owning your own power. Stop making other people more important than you. You are the main attraction! You are the star of the show! You are the reason the sun rises every morning! YOU YOU YOU.
Have an Terrific Thursday!
I’m on my way to judge some story telling by eThekwini @ Botanical Gardens. Looking forward to learning some speaking tips from the kids.
Love,
