Life is not the sweetest candy. Sometimes, when I feel like the world is just too heavy, I look around and find people who continue to live fascinating and wonderful lives and then thoughts come popping into my mind like bubbles from nowhere  How did their life become so adorably sweet?  How come they still can manage to laugh and play around despite a busy stressful life?  Then I pause and observe for a while… I figured out that maybe, they start to work on a place called self.

So, how does one become genuinely happy? Love yourself.

Loving means accepting.  To love one self means to accept that you are not a perfect being, but behind the imperfections must lie a great ounce of courage to be able to discover ways on how to improve our repertoire to recover from our mistakes.

Genuine happiness also pertains to contentment. When you are contented with the job you have, the way you look, with your family, your friends, the place you live in, your car, and all the things you now have, truly, you know the answer to the question how to be genuinely happy.

When we discover a small start somewhere from within, that small start will eventually lead to something else, and to something else. But if you keep questioning life like it has never done you any good, you will never be able to find genuine happiness.

I believe that life is about finding out about right and wrong, trying and failing, winning and losing.  These are things that happen as often as you inhale and exhale.  Failure, in a persons life has become as abundant and necessary as air.  But this should not hinder us from becoming happy.
