What is the root of your happiness?
I read a similar question on my bestie's blog, her answer was life, as ambiguous as that may sound. I certainly couldn't agree more. I hardly ever thought about that, to me happiness and life is what you make of it. Off the top of my head I would probably say that my friends and family is the base of my happiness, yet on second thought, they are the foundation of my life. It is with them that I go through the trials and tribulations of my life, and they are my pillar of strength and support in my times of turmoil.
We learn through each other's experiences, and in turn grow mentally and emotionally. We become stronger when we realize we have to be there for someone else whom may be weaker than us at a certain point in time, we see in us aspects we never thought existed. It is through going through the many ups and downs that we get to where we are today. I would definitely say that it was worth going through the worse times of my life, just because I'm so much stronger and mature than I would be without having them.
I've learnt a terrible lot and the hard truth about how cold the world can be. But you know what? It doesn't deter me but in fact pushes me to be better than people who ruin the purity of others. Till this day I don't understand how people can take joy in someone else's misery, to plan and scheme even when they know it would hurt another person in every sense of the word. If you don't like someone, why not just ignore him/her and lead your own life? Some people have nothing else better to do...really, we're all supposed to be grown-ups, not teeny boppers from high school.
I've met many people along the way in my 21 years of being in this world, a lot of whom have been great disappointments. I suppose the more important factor is that I've met great people who are still in my life till this day, and that beats meeting the "baddies" anytime. Many come and go and the wind never stops blowing me to different directions, but I will flow with the wind to whereever it takes me and make the best out of every situation.
I'm thankful to have gone through all that I have in my life, its made me who I am today. Those who have been there for me through my ups and downs, and those who tried to make my life miserable, I thank you nevertheless. Kudos to you all.
Shoutout to my Samsui Sister: Babe you are stronger than you could possibly imagine and I know these are hard times to go through now. I'm sorry I'm not there right now but I'm coming back as soon as I can. I'll do all I can to help and you know in your heart always where you can find me. I'm sure my nagging voice is always at the back of your head. I love you and I'm so glad you've found happiness in life once again. The Samsuis are back! You rock my socks babe.
