i constantly wonder what to write about in this blog. i'll stop blogging for a while, but then i'll decide i want to again and i'll start another pointless blog. what i really need to do is find something to write about.
so today, while i try to decide what subject to focus this blog on, i'm going to vent just a little.
i get really sick of people who constantly complain. once in a while is fine, and that's to be expected. but there comes a point in time where it's not cute anymore. when you're constantly fishing for compliments and constantly expecting others to try to cheer you up, you've already reached a point where you can't make yourself happy. i think it's ridiculous.
life is only as good as you think it is.
if you think your life sucks, it will, no matter how many shoes you have, or how big your house is, or how much money you have. if you're constantly depressed, yes, your life is going to suck. but if you decide to look at the silver lining, you won't need other people to make you happy. in order to be satisfied and happy with your life, you have to make that conscious decision to think that way.
happiness is not going to fall into your lap, and so many people think that it will. it drives me nuts. happiness does not bestow itself to you. it does not bow at your feet. it does not set out a road map to becoming the happiest, most successful person that you can be. it's quite the opposite. you have to make that road map. you have to constantly be traveling to what you think will make you happy, while still stopping to smell the flowers and enjoy the small things in life.
you know, being happy really is quite simple.
all you have to do is look around.
