It seems like it is a simple message. Be happy. Do the things that make you happy. It is easier said than done. But judgment and hearing opinions of others get in the way of you trying to do the things that make you happy. We are so caught up in making sure others don't get hurt or we care too much about what others will say about our choices.

I want to point this out to you. People will still judge you no matter what you choose to do. That's how people are. They're going to hate you for so many reasons, even if they have to make up one because that's something they do. They will always try to find a reason to take your happiness away from you. You can't control that. But you can control yourself.

Don't get on their level because you will never find your happiness if you do. Happiness is not found by belittling others to build yourself up. Happiness is not found in picking on others. Happiness is not found in hating others because they are different from you.

We think we know people and we are so quick to make those judgments.

You don't know what they're going through. We will continue to hate a person until something tragic happens and that's when we will decide to be kind. Why does it take for circumstances like that for you to be kind? You will never know what a person is going through. All of us have faked smiles. So why would you put down people when you don't even know them?

I want you to do what makes you happy regardless of what people have to say. I know you have been in my shoes where you have felt unhappy because you cared about people's opinions. You cared about them too much because you were trying to avoid them searching reasons to put you down. You can't satisfy everyone. Do what makes you happy.

Don't listen to what they have to say as little as possible. Put your phone away. Go to the gym. Drink some tea or coffee. Do the little things that make you happy matter.
