Happiness...and a Key.


Can you believe it’s already Friday? Yowsa!
I spent the week running, seems to be the norm lately. My little one and I have been preparing for college…she will start this summer, my son and I in the fall. I met with an old friend this week, which was Lovely! And made a new friend along the way…
Anyway…My little one said something to me this week that got me thinking…
Why does it seem as if people depend on others for their own happiness?
She was telling me how her friends were complaining about odds and ends in which all seem to stem around someone else causing them to be unhappy.
I offer my motherly advice and tell her how it is important that we find our own happiness and let the rest fall into place. In life we can’t always please others and need to seek our own happiness and peace in the world…
I’ve finally figured out the key to life…Ready?

As long as you are happy with you. Love You some You…then the rest will fall into place…Now this is MY “Key to Life” part of my journey and inner peace…after spending years not liking, not knowing, and pleasing others…I can finally say…I feel at home. It’s true what they say…what you speak will be the outcome of your day, week, year…Life. It is also true the more you speak and tell yourself positive affirmations…you will begin to believe in them more and trust in yourself…
Despite all the obstacles…I’m happy. I’m blessed. I’m comfortable being Me.
I got good news today…Let’s just say it goes like this….if you were wandering in the desert…and found water…yeah, it’s kinda like that! Thank God.
Be Good to You.
Smooches,
Lola

  2. This is so true. So many people look to others for their happiness when the reality is, happiness can only be found through God and being comfortable with ourselves.

    1. We speak the same language...this is so true, yet many seek others for their own happiness...God is the key...He shall direct my path!

    1. Thanks for the compliment! As a Mother I feel it's a MUST to teach as my kids make their own mistakes, as long as they love who they are...they'll do just fine. This applies to everyone...

  4. I agree. We need to love ourselves first to be able to love others. We cannot give what we do not have. I'm happy you're happy!
