I have SO been where you are right now! I used to think, "
If I get accepted into this or that college..." of "
if _____ asks me out..." or "
if only my family would get along..." (or any other thoughts that people and events determine what makes me happy)
then I will feel happy... I used to make my happiness conditional, dependent upon some external event.
It
is possible to find happiness anywhere you are. In fact, the faster you decide to be happy right here, right now, the faster you will realize you goals and dreams.
I spent a lot of years fighting, working hard, pushing myself to get what I wanted, and only recently realized that once I turned off that voice that told me to compare myself to others, or that said I could only be happy
if_______ happens, then miracles started to happen in my life. You will find this because you want it, and because at such a young age you are already starting to see the meaning of reflecting about your life. Keep it up, decide youwant to be happy, and see what happens!
