7 Quotes to Help You Find Happiness in Yourself
Rachel Leach

You have every opportunity that comes your way to be happy with yourself.

Here are some quotes to help you get started...You are the only person that can truly make you happy, so what are you waiting for?

1.

You may now have to tell everyone what’s going on inside your head, but you can’t always live in the past. Life doesn’t wait for you; it might be time to move on. There may be better things out there waiting for you.

2.

Do not waste your time making everyone around you happy. It’s time for you to live for yourself, disregard what everyone else thinks. You are the most important thing in your life right now, and you should live every day with a smile on your face because you are you and no one can change that.

3.

Who said that you aren’t a priority? You aren’t being selfish if you are treating yourself, it’s how way life works. You have to make yourself happy before you can make anyone else happy.

4.

Think to yourself ten things that make you happy, write them down, and go make them happen. If you like photography because you can see things from a different perspective, go take a picture. If sitting in a coffee shop with a book in hand makes you happy, go do it. If being in Europe makes you happy, why haven’t you moved to Europe by now? Treat yourself. You deserve happiness.

5.

There’s a reason you were brought into this world, I know there is. There is a reason we were all brought into this world. You don’t have to explain to me what makes you happy, all you have to know are the things that create your happiness. You live your own life and I live my own life. What sort of things can you change about your life so you live a happier one? Don’t let yourself down, you are special in every sort of way.

6.

If you want to be happy, do not compare yourself to others. No two people are alike. Do not feel sorry for yourself even if you feel like a failure. Do not hide from change in your life, maybe the change will make you feel happier and stronger. Do not ever try to please everyone because it can’t happen. There’s nothing you can do to please every single person, no matter how hard you try.

It’s time to take your life into your own hands, don’t wait for life to get better for you. Every single person lives a different life and every person knows their own happiness. What’s yours?

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
