Has been quite a long time since I last 'wrote' an actual post.
There are so many things I could have opined on, when I couldn't find a platform or ears! And now, finally, when I did realize, that this could very well be a platform, I'm not sure what I want to opine on.
On Happiness:
I've realized,
If it's a known quote, "You can make others happy, when you yourself, are happy", why can't the converse be applied?
"When you make others happy, you can also be happy".
Someone had questioned me,
"But how can you make others happy, if you are sad?"
Well, why not? When I'm sad, I'll strive to make someone else happy, and in their happiness, I shall gain my satisfaction. Yeah, that's, Being Selfish On A Higher Level, And For The Greater Good. Oh, and Unconditional Love.
I've also come to terms with the Power of Decision.
Even if the situation around expects you to be sad, let down, depressed...every thing possibly negative, you decide to be happy, in stead. That helps. That actually does.
Then again, that does not mean we simply negate all the negatives and make everything look positive. Negativity is there, and it's there for a purpose. But when you can, you try to decide to be happy. Happiness, is a perspective.
On Changes:
Yeah, my favourite part.
If you aren't under constant flux, you aren't growing.
One of my classmates said to me,
"You've changed a lot since the past two years! How come?"
"Just a realization. :)"
"Something happened in your life?"
I just shrugged.
They think, "A new love life?" "A new achievement?" "Something big!"
When the truth is,
A new love life?
Definitely. I fell in love with myself.
A new achievement?
That sure is.
Something big!
When you stop categorizing situations as 'big' and 'small', you'll know, each thing is significant in itself. :)
Okay, I feel like I'm preaching here! But, I say this from experience. Honest. =/
When am I getting my Nobel for this? :P
