Happiness

Happiness is something everyone wants but doesn't realise how easy it is to have. So many things bring happiness and if people took more time to appreciate the little things then maybe they would all be a bit happier. This sounds like an angry rant but it's not, it's more of a desperate plea to the world.

All I want in life is to be happy. I think a lot of other people share that hope. I don't understand why people will constantly make others sad or angry and just plain unhappy if they themselves want to be happy. Why would you not want others to be happy? By bringing others happiness, it usually makes us feel happier so why wouldn't you do it. I don't understand why people can be so mean and cruel to each other. I'm not talking about wars and terrorist attacks, although whats up with them?!! I mean plain and simple bullying. Most people have been bullied and most people bully others, sometimes without even meaning to. And I hate that this is the world we live in. I hate that this is normal behaviour. Something I've realised recently is that people react differently to the same things. I could say something to two different people and depending on how sensitive they are, it could seriously affect and upset them and that is something that I would never want.

Most people these days put up a wall, or have a sort of 'shell' around them. Not a real wall/shell but a metaphorical one. Just to appear differently than who they are and to not show weakness etc. But why? If someone upsets you, show them. Tell them. Let them realise that they can't keep acting that way and that you're upset by their actions. If you don't, who will?

Anyway, back to happiness. I think that so many little teeny things that can make people happy are overlooked in day-to-day actions. For example, seeing my best friend or that cute boy may make me happy but I would never properly think about it. I would probably just dismiss my happiness and say to myself that I was just being silly. But being silly is good and happiness is good. I think that if something makes you happy then do it. Do it all the time. If someone makes you happy, be with them as much as you can. (Without being a weirdo)

But importantly, just do whatever makes you happy and don't let anyone stand in your way. If you're not happy and aren't sure how to be, maybe listen to others to find out how they make themselves happy but remember it may not apply to you. Some people feel the need to be in a relationship to be happy or to be successful and if that's what you think, then great! I hope you're happy! But not everyone feels that way and you may not want to be in a relationship, ever, and that's perfectly fine!

Some people believe that you shouldn't depend on others for your own happiness and I agree and disagree with this. I think you should definitely be able to be happy on your own and to be able to make yourself happy but if being with people makes you happy then be with them! Who cares! Who cares what other people think? Everyone needs to chill out more and stop caring about what other people will think of them because that's no way to live and automatically decreases your happiness.

So this is a lot longer than I planned but please just smile, be happy, don't be mean and enjoy your life! Also if you ever need help or aren't happy, just contact me!! Links are all down there as usual x
