You don’t need any more or any less to be happy.
Life would be different if you stopped allowing other people to weaken or poison your perception with their words and opinions. Happiness is derived from the way you see your own life. It depends on your thoughts, not on what you have or what you do not have, or what other people think about what you have. You will never have enough to please some people.
Pease remember also no matter how good you are at something there will always be people who criticize your efforts. Although it’s never a comfortable experience, the feelings of criticism and rejection can actually help you access your more creative self. When you are free from the expectations of maintaining what everyone else is pleased with, you can push the limits of innovation and self expression.
This moment is your life. Today is too valuable to waste thinking of another time and place. Your friends and family are too beautiful to ignore. Take a moment to remember how fortunate you are to be breathing. Take a look around, with your eyes earnestly open to the possibilities before you. Much of what you fear does not exist. Much of what you love is closer than you realize. You are just one brief thought away from understanding the biggest blessing that is your life.
Big opportunities come to those who make the most of little opportunities. Little opportunities are present in each moment and in every situation. Today is filled with little opportunities. Everywhere you look, there are small ways for you to make a positive difference. In little bits of time that might otherwise be wasted, there is a piece of something larger waiting to be created. String enough of these pieces together, and absolutely anything is within your reach. You just need to decide what it is you want to achieve.
Again, you don’t need any more or any less to be happy. Just be glad for who you are and what God has given you through His ability and your faith.
