Just Live




So what do we all want in this life? Simple happiness right. We all want to be and feel happy, even through the darkest of days. We crave it so bad, but then again what do we do about it? 

Well most of us are too preoccupied with social media, wanting to know what everybody else thinks of us, just so that they can say something good about you, and in turn this makes you "happy" Nah! I don't think so. Fair enough social media brings most people closer together, you get to see other sides of people you haven't seen before, but what do you actually do to make yourself happy? With social media we just put up appearances and walls to make people believe we are always good, sure some of us go off rails and vent in wrong ways, but that could also be seen as an act to get ones attention.

We are so consumed by the technologies of this world (I admit they are awesome) but we forget all about the real world, the things that we touched, seen, felt or even tasted, those were most of things that made us happy when we were growing up. These days we live by a code, a silly one, we wake up get ready for work (which most of us hate) spend more working times looking at social media, staring at ridiculous internet stuff, watch a whole lot of YouTube because lets face it TV sucks these days, we come home go to bed, wake up and do it all over again. We are so focused at being successful and looking great to other people that we forget about us and our wants and needs. 

So what do we do about it? I think we stop worrying about what other people think of us, that's a whole lot of bullshit. Leave the social media out a bit, go for walk and heighten your senses, read a book and use your creative mind, listen to your favorite music and bust out into a ridiculous dance. Try changing your look and appearance to what you are most comfortable with, some people will like it some will not, who cares about what they think! This is your happiness we're talking about here. 

We need to break from what is just expected from us and do something fun, spontaneous, these are the things that will give you the best of memories and you're older you can look back and say yeah I had the balls to do something weird.


Think about yourself, listen to your brain and follow your heart and you will find some sort of happiness, after all only you have the ability to do so..
