I read a quote about how happiness should be from inside, and not from other people, or material stuff.
The problem with me is, "I don't know what's empty inside." I don't know what it is that's causing me to be unhappy.
Do you even know what's making you feeling empty? Always seeking other people and stuff to fill yourself up?
Imagine, a world without people. Can I even be happy?! Come on, get real. It will be boring! And, I might just try doing stupid things to not be lonely.
Happyiness needs both ways. You can't just have it from the inside. You need outside as well.
But it will be of course better, if you are happy inside as well. So, anyone knows how to be really happy inside?
Meditation, zen? More sleep? Gratitude? Appreciation? Faith?
And sometimes, self-help books should be renamed as "The Misguided Ones". Most of the self-help books are short-term stuff, not long term. It's pretty much bull.
