We want more or less. Doesn't matter what it is, who, how or when. More sleep, more time, more money, more power, more attention, more space. Less stress, less homework, less attention, fewer failures, fewer obligations, fewer demands. No matter how amazing our lives turn out to be, no matter how perfect our families are or how nice our nighbourhood is, we aren't satisfied. We want what others have, we abuse and misuse what we've got, we whine and complain and dream of a "better" life. You live in a mansion? The neighbour's is bigger. Your family is happy? Could be happier. You're beautiful? Not compared to the top models. No one is perfect, no life is without problems - these challenges and the decisions we make build character.
You are who you are. Accept it. Your house is lovely, you are beautiful, you are happy, you are wonderful. Decide for yourself that you are going to be all these things; love others, love yourself. Be happy with who you are and what you have.
No one can take away what is within, no one can take your happiness if it is immaterial.
- xx, Kelly.
