When You Lose Sight Of Your Happiness, Find A Hobby That can Focus Your Passion
Erikka Chowdhury

Happiness comes from within you primarily and not externally all the time. You are the sheer force behind a healthy and happy state of mind. There is no other force other than you who could dictate the levels of ecstasy you should experience. As a matter of fact, there are multiple methods of attaining the ultimate spice of life. Some popular methods include participating in fantastic extracurricular activities such as scuba diving and bungee jumping. These fierce activities will bring out the inner playful person which is probably hiding inside of you and expose you to the fun-filled wonders of the world. In addition, it will also eradicate substantial fears you have and make you more fearless than you ever were!

Alongside such daredevil and adventurous activities, you can transition towards soothing and relaxing activities such as painting, reading, writing, or playing tennis. These activities are a little bit less challenging than the activities previously mentioned and they will give you more time to ponder about certain things in life. My advice to everyone is that they should always strive to embrace life and engage in events or activities which will release stress hormones. Many state-of-the-art activities are meant to lighten up your workload and brighten up your gloomy day!

Furthermore, spending time with wonderful friends and family members will also cheer you up. Solitude adds up to an abundance of loneliness in no time but being alongside people who contribute to your overall well-being will never make you feel lonely. It also allows you to improve your socializing and communication skills tremendously. I strongly believe that you learn much more by interacting with others and it will also positively impact your levels of optimism. Since I'm an only child, I enjoy being surrounded by various mindsets and perceptions.

Finally, begin searching for happiness within you first before resorting to external methods of fun. If you do not feel satisfied or happy initially, then it will not be an easy task to embrace happiness from external sources. The search for joie de vivre moments should start and end with you!

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.

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.

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.
