My Happiness

" I realized that I was trying to find my happiness in other people and material things, when the key to my happiness is in me. If I'm happy because one makes me happy, what will happen when one goes away? If I'm happy because I have this or that, what will happen when it breaks? It's all going to burn. When you find your happiness and go after it, people start to get angry. Many people are trying to find their happiness in you, and their happiness is contingent on some aspect of your life. Some of my friends are only happy around me when I'm experiencing family drama. My parents' happiness seems to be contingent on me having a child and a wife. You have to get to the point where you're going to go after what's best for you, and deny everyone else who is trying to benefit from your present state of being, or the role they have created for you to play. So many people were trying to find something in me because they were too lazy to find it in themself, and I had to cut them off. They were holding me back and trying to keep me in my current state, so that they could continue to get whatever they thought they found in me. I had to tell them to find whatever they are missing in themself or God, and follow my own advice."-Marz

Conversation I had with a piece of trade over Thanksgiving Break.
