Does your family make you happy? Or maybe your colleagues, huh? Or perhaps your lover? Mine doesn’t. Staggered? Since it’s neither their responsibility to make me happy nor should my happiness depend on anyone in my life. I have goals and desires in my life that make me what I am, accomplishing them make me happy. Being upbeat is a personal choice, and it ought not to depend on anyone.
All the people who care for me can do whatever they can to make me happy, but it's me who should have the way to my happiness. Nothing in this life is going to stay with you, everyone can change, people's circumstances can change. The more you love yourself, the less you wish others to adore you. Any person can decide to quit on you but, you have got to get up every day and never give up on yourself. Learn to acknowledge how you feel. If you are depressed accept that you are depressed. Unless you feel the pain, you won't get to come out of it in your life.
I have seen plenty of people agonising over others' opinion of them, suppressing what they think about themselves. You should not take anything personally from anyone you're not personal with. “I don’t care what people think of me, I don’t care what people say about me, I know who I am, and I know that I am the best version of myself”.
Life is indeed like a heartbeat monitor that's going to have its ups and downs, a straight line is an indication of a dead fish. Nobody’s life is brimming with absolute delight and fulfilment, but they need to grow from their downs, embrace the downs, recuperate from them, and prepare for the next downfall so that they can deal with it with joy the next time they face it. Acknowledge what and how you feel about certain emotions instead of dodging them as dodging these emotions will not teach you the lesson that you should have learned.
