To tell you the truth I really don’t know. I realized most of my life my happiness was based on the happiness of other people. Some pushed me around because of it and some appreciated it and went on with my life. When I think I wanna do something that makes me happy, and someone disapproves I don’t do it. And if I do end up doing it anyway then that person thinks negative of me and makes me sad. I really need to get out of this state and learn to care for myself and do what makes me happy regardless of what people may think. But I don’t want to become a total bitch either. sigh…
How to do what makes me happy
How I did it: Ok so I'm actually still working on it but... . Consider it almost done!
A friend of mine gave me the assignment to make a big wallpainting of a beautiful landscape. This is totally my thing and really the thing that makes me happy. In the meantime I restored the rest of his house that he is living in.
And that too made me very happy. Like the cherry on the pie, I am now busy with doing a mosaic in his kitchen :D It's going to be a balinese dragon ( I might upload a photo of it) So thanks to my friend I had a good excuse to devote myself to a project I'm totally into ! :D
If you're doing something that makes you happy ánd you help someone else along with it. It feels like a bonus.
Lessons & tips: Make a project of it. And maybe keep a journal of it. So that you can see the progress you make. But doing something completely pointless can also make you happy ( I'm very good at that too )

I have been busy on the weekends organizing my home and finances. Now I’ve got to do something fun for the upcoming long weekend.

It makes me happy to let go of worries, thoughts about what others might think of me, and keep thinking about things that are beautiful, lovely, and true. They make me happy!

i don’t even want to think about my state of mind when i first made this list. so many things have changed for the better about my life. i’ve accomplished a lot and look forward to accomplishing even more. i’m in control of my life and i love the direction it’s heading, for once. i have a lot of excitement ahead of me and life is good. i am ready for what it has in store for me :)
Do the simple things in life that make me happy. Wear red shoes, kick through great piles of autumn leaves, listening to rain on a tin roof, watching the flames in a open fire, .................
One my newest favorite quotes:
