happiness
Happiness, defined; things that help you find happiness, keep it, and share it with others.
Stuck?
I am fine. I know I am doing alright. Things could be much worse, really. I am a fighter, survivor, overcomer, and will keep carrying on. I know how to keep going on, it’s second nature to my brain cells; adversities, trials, emotional ups, social insecurities, and financial hardships all have taken their turn at me. It's okay. I am still fighting them at the moment. I don't have time to get down and be depressed even if I wanted to, others depend on me for literal survival. I do love traveling and, of course, cooking!! I love ❤️ to cook!!! I love giving advice to young women! 👯 I hate mediocrity, and hate wallowing in my obstacles and difficulties. I share little to none with others. It's no use. A friend of mine once called me a chameleon, I was crossed with her. Later I realized she was right! I am almost always blending in. At work, school, and church. ⛪ I want to be molded in so well that my life’s situations may not be seen sewing, traveling, and of course cooking!!

What If We Paused Our Search for Happiness?
What if we paused our search for happiness? It might seem like a crazy idea, but let me explain. I feel as if more and more people are sharing their opinions and tips on what to do to achieve personal happiness, so I thought I should do the same but with a slight twist. Besides, we all know that these people, who seem so perfect on social media, can have their rough moments—just like anybody.

Don't Worry
Growing up, I was put down constantly. Whether it came to my height, my weight, my race… There were times my own parents put me down as well. I’ve had a lot of downs in my life that caused my depression to skyrocket for years. My parents were mentally and physically abusive, people who I thought were my friends left me behind, and my relationship was constantly on and off. I was never the smart girl, the pretty girl, the girl everyone wanted to know… I was just me. Regular, ordinary, awkward, and weird. I had a lot of dreams that really helped me keep pushing, keep trying, and keep living. I also have a few friends who really believed in me and kept encouraging me to keep going when I was about to quit.

What Was the Last Thing That Made You Smile?
I read the flyer, taped neatly on the mirror in the bathroom. It had been put up (supposedly) by an on-campus psychology research group. A QR code and an email address were printed on the bottom left corner—for those who wanted to participate in their study (I'm assuming).

Today You Are You
I am not sure who needs to read this today, but just stop. Stop comparing yourself to others, stop comparing yourself to who you used to be, and stop comparing yourself to those who are unoriginal. Basically, just be you, as you are an original.

What Is Your Destiny?
Fate is the idea that our lives may be bound to a fixed set of circumstances. That regardless of our actions, we don’t have much control over our lives because ultimately there is a plan that has already been put in place. There are many theories that exist, however, each of them rightfully open for consideration and discussion. Some may believe that deterministic physical laws of the universe are the governing power over our lives; that every single chemical reaction is predetermined to occur. Others may believe that there is a ‘God’ that has complete control or knowledge over what is going to occur. There has been no proven is no right or wrong answer, these are all only theories.

What I Learned About Myself Now That I'm 30
One thing I've learned from turning 30 is that all the self doubt, low self esteem, anxiety, and fear of what people might think is all just BS. All the stuff in my head that I lost sleep over was just not worth it.
