The state of being happy…. How many can say when I wake up in the morning regardless of the day I had I am happy, and when I go to bed I close my eyes I am in that state of happiness? Not many. And let me add that that place of pure happiness in your mind and heart is a great place to be at… Regardless of any issue that is going on around you, you are able to still be in that mental state.

I always ask people are you happy, like really happy and if you’re not why not. Because in all actuality if you’re not happy you can change that. We all have that power to change and become a better u. And that’s not saying go and change for someone else you have to want that for you. You have to want to break that old thing and start something new. We all are capable of finding pure happiness if we take the time to understand ourselves. And when you do find it, there is nothing or no one that will be able to take it from you.

I don’t know how many people say I don’t know how to be happy… Smh… What they really are saying is that I am content in where I am and I am going to settle for this state right now because what reason do I have to change. And when you see that in a person you usually see that in all in that social circle. Because the term birds of a feather flock together is very much true… When you surround yourself around people and situations that aren’t happy it gets harder to see that that is not a healthy state to be at. It becomes normal for you…

Let me just say this, just because those people you associate with might be family doesn’t mean it is always the healthy… * I’ll wait*…

Let me say it one more time, just because those people you associate with might be family doesn’t mean it is always healthy…

Yes that is where things can get a little shaky because everyone is raised in saying blood is thicker than water. The way I look at it is you can’t pick your family so make sure you pick your friends wisely. That is not saying you don’t love your family it’s just saying you don’t have to deal with and surround yourself by the negative that might come from some family members. Because one bad apple will ruin the bunch… It’s natural… It only takes one person to say something negative that can either bring the group into a negative mindset. And that is a continuous cycle until you know for yourself that that is not what life is about…

There is nothing wrong with walking away. Walking away is the first step to you becoming a better you and finding that happiness that we all have in our hearts if you’re ready to have that peace in your mind and heart…

So now my question is for people, Are you happy within your life and if you’re not how are going to change it?
