Happiness is Overrated!

If you wait until you feel like doing things, you wouldn't get anything done. Do what makes you feel good?
That's what got you in trouble in the first place.
All the things that you felt like doing is the sum total of all your regret.
All the things that hesitate to do, all the things you put off till later, everything that challenges you are the things that will improve you and your life.
Don't listen to prayerful depressives tell you to wait on God or when you are ready. You'll waste too much time on pause until the sun shines to pursue your dreams.
There's a bunch of convoluted spiritual jargon, and ineffective psychological methodology that will have you naked while sipping wine on a lawn chair while doing crossword puzzles because happiness is all that matters..
That's bullshyte!
Pressure makes steel. Friction sharpens the blade. Hardship makes you stronger (if you allow it).
If you haven't healed yet, after being your healing journey all this time, IT'S BECAUSE YOU AREN'T GOING TO!
You have to scrape up what's let of you and put it together again like Humpty Dumpty and expand yourself through the vehicles of courage and conviction!
Usefulness is a better goal than happiness!

P.S. Leave a comment and tell me how this message makes you feel. Are you bothered by it? Do you have happiness more than anything?
I have spent my whole life seeking approva! I was taught this from my family. Your worth was determined by how you looked first then what you could offer. This pattern spilled into my life from friends to the men I allowed to pick me. Abuse and addiction was normal to me. It was my job to take care of everyone to prove loyalty and that I was a good daughter,wife,friend which in turn has destroyed me. I recently posted a comment on YouTube stating when your father tells you you are ugly and no man will ever want but for sex! I was not looking for sympathy ...at 48 years old I been down that road and I know…
This shit right here is the truth - and confusing. Doing what feels good is a blanket statement. And it could go either way for the doer. I know that life is a paradox but I don’t wanna move if it means going thru the same shit again. 😟
