Who Took the Remote?

Raise a hand if your life is perfect. Well I can’t see you, but you are having doubts right now wondering if the “perfect” life is actually attainable. Is there anyone with the perfect life? Then again it all depends on what you define as the perfect life. Ahh, now we are getting somewhere. So for many, the perfect life is in sight once the plans that you have worked on are going fine. For others, the perfect life is having a wonderful family. And yet for others the perfect life is attaining happiness. Happiness that elusive fellow who presents himself dancing always out of reach and spinning close enough so you get some after effects. That is just one perspective of many who feel that they can never be happy.

Wake up my fellow Earthians and realise that your happiness is possible. Too often we tie ourselves down with problems which are self born. In other words, we create unnecessary problems for ourselves. We see problems and almost as if by magnetism we are attracted. Hello problems “here I come, you can’t hide am gonna fine you and…” you know the rest. We have to start thinking critically about things that may seem problematic. Once you begin to question several things about a situation, realise that a problem exists and like a good math student, solve that equation or you might find yourself later with only “y”.

I would like to think that we each control our own life. That self pity that you exude, needs to go. Get up and get started doing something. Begin with a positive thought. You will be surprised at what just a thought can do for you. Think back to a place, a time, anything, something that once made you happy. Recreate that moment, bask in it and create some more. Take caution though not to live in the past, because sometimes that is the source of our unhappiness.The point is to realise that you can create happiness for yourself. Try not to hinge your happiness too much on anyone. It is high time that we all realise that we control the remote to our lives. You choose which station you want – happiness or unhappiness.
