What am I doing here?

March 17, 2010

My life is a journey towards a better self. Of enjoying, exploring, and experiencing life. I don’t want to sit in the backseat in my own life~ I want to be the driver! I make my life and make it happen, it doesn’t happen to me. I love myself and I want to find like-minded people that feels the same.

I believe that while loving yourself is NOT gonna make all your problems go away, you’re going to be a lot stronger to face anything. Besides, you’ve got the most important person in the world to face it with. Yourself.

My purpose of life is to live, to make things happen instead of just waiting for it to happen. I long to travel the world! Experiencing much of the world! I want to help people realise that:

YES. It’s possible to be happy! And YES, it’s perfectly OKAY to be happy.

Some people think they don’t deserve happiness, and that they can’t be happy no matter what. Well let me tell you something, the cliche saying “Happiness comes from within” has a reason for it to become a cliche.

Many people believe it and say it too often that it becomes a cliche, but it doesn’t stop it for being true.

I just realised that, while I’m currently so far to where I want to be in so many aspects of my life, I realised that:

YES. I’m still able to be happy no matter what wants I have.

Sure, I want a £10,000/month income (who doesn’t),
Sure, I want to travel the world,
Sure, I want to party everyday (OK, maybe I don’t)~
but the bottom line is, I don’t have all these things yet, but I’m perfectly happy.

You know why?

Because I know I still have soooooooooooooooooooooooo many good things in my life that I’m grateful for. Thinking of these things and the people that I care about reminds me that yeah, I’m a lucky bastard.

But it doesn’t mean that I’m just gonna sit here and do nothing. No! What this means is that while I want these things, these are not key drivers to my happiness. I still want them. And better yet, now I chase my dreams and goals with enjoyment.

No more: if I have ________, I’ll be happy.

when I get ________, I’ll be happy.

I think I finally realised and believe that happiness is a state of mind. It doesn’t depend on circumstances. Circumstances play its part, but you still have a choice of whether or not you are happy.

So yeah, I enjoy my life. And I am going towards even a better life. To infinity and beyond! :)
