I always tend to criticize myself in some certain period of time. I want to be better day by day, and I considered that the best way to deal with the past, stay calm with the present, and continue to overcome the future is to look inside yourself. No need to compare yourself with others. My father often says so. He said, “Are we happy and proud of being someone’s perfect, smart, rich, popular, and honored by anyone who know us? Yes/No. If yes, who are we in the middle of nowhere? None expected to know us. Are we happy and proud? If the answer is no, decide what to make you happy. People are afraid of being alone and none take a look at them. People love to be admired and honored, but you have to understand that the essence of happiness is not in what you have achieved and become popular by that, but when you consider of being happy yourself, no matter what and where.”
I live my life with my own way. I do not listen to anyone else when making my decision. I do not look back after I made it. I take any responsibilities resulted from any of my actions. I thank God for every moment I have till this second you read my posting. I am happy for my wonderful path of life, I am happy for my tears, I am happy for my failures, and I am happy of being me.
Once, in an interview, a man asked me, “Describe yourself, and type of guy you like to be a boyfriend.”
I said,”For some purposes, I often say that I am a kind of very typical Scorpio girl. But I prefer not to restrict the definition of myself. Why do we have to use limited words to describe ourselves? I simply say, I am happy of being me. And what kind of guy I like to be a mate? That’s the same ridiculous question. I never had any so-called favorite type. I just believe I will find my mate, and love him perfectly, though he’s not perfect, no matter what and where, no matter what people say.”
So for my pesonal reference, happy is not about being what you have. But happy is truly about being you. You yourself.
