How happy are you really?
I ask this question because sometimes we lie to ourselves or others so often that we eventually end up lying to ourselves no matter what.
I lie to avoid pity or sympathy. I also lie because I have a natural depression that I know some others have and can't advice me probably because their perspective of happiness or a positive reality is just as skewed as mine. Sometimes I think about all the ways people mask sadness with drugs or alcohol or some other kind of addiction. I've watched people do this all my life....it never helps. Just avoiding some kind of problem. I've even tried exercising.
Mental illnesses aside, I do believe that we are only as happy as we allow ourselves to be. Too often we Make others Responsible for our happiness to the point that we blame them for the reason why we aren't happy and that's absolutely false.
I CAN'T BE HELD
RESPONSIBLE
FOR YOUR HAPPINESS!!
It's the same sad reason I expect a little help with my happiness from my man. I guess it's a vicious cycle.
