There's always something better outside but what you have will always be the best. As I get older, I find myself appreciating the simple things and losing interest in a lot of things that used to move me.
I've never been one to care about material things. Even when I fantasize about being wealthy, it's more about comfort and not having to work than actually living in opulence.
I want to be able to afford all the things I need and as far as I can tell, all I need is air, shelter and sustenance. I find myself losing interest in most things and only focus on what makes me happy.
When you think about your desires, your wants and needs, are they genuinely what you actually want? Do you really want to do the things you think you want to do or are you simply doing them because of societal pressure?
I've decided that I'm only going to what I want to do because it makes me happy. I will compromise to make others happy but then again, seeing my loved ones happy also makes me happy, so at the end of the day, it's still a source of happiness for me.
I'm enjoying the little pleasures in life and taking life as it comes. No one gets out of life alive, so why live like you're going to live forever when each breath is fleeting? I'm going to seek out happiness every step of the way.
