Seek what YOU deserve..... [I Know You Deserve True Happiness]
[image deleted]
I once hid all my sorrows beneath a facade of happiness. I believed if I made everyone around me happy, then that was enough, and in return, theirs could bring me my own. What a terrible ideology that was, especially when I felt as if I fell short of my efforts in doing such when they weren't. [b][c=800055]I was [i]fooling myself[/i], and in the process, destroying & depriving myself of so much in life.[/c][/b] It was only when I embraced my authentic self; the one with many sorrows, then put myself first and sought what it was that I [b][c=800055]deserved[/c][/b], I was finally met with the liberation of knowing such a blessing.
[b][c=800055]Hope is OURS to hold[/c][/b], and not to be put into the hands of another. On that note, although I didn't go willingly into the light they offered, I'm eternally blessed for the the hands that led me there. Without them, I'd still be stagnant, and holding onto the mere thought of a thing called hope, while also a bit cynical to the belief that it even truly existed.
Not every day will bring happiness to any of us, because its just a feeling & [b][c=800055]all feelings are fleeting[/c][/b]. So dwell in your sorrows as long as you need, and never deny them, as that damages the soul. But keep hope alive (a rational one) in your heart always, and never be a puppet with your emotions. [c=800055][b]Being true to yourself is a must,[/b][/c] even if that truth comes from a deep well of sadness or even one of anger.

[i][c=800055]On another note: try to be the light in someones time(s) of darkness, but never push what isn't ready to be felt. Forcing happiness and positivity isn't healthy, nor is it a fruitful endeavor. It's unrealistic and can be toxic to those who merely need support.
