Last night I stayed up pretty late with an old friend and talked for a long time. He told me his stories, how he's been doing, what's going on in his life. You see, my friend has been having some very big problems for a few years now.
After listening to him and thinking about it, I thought to myself, I couldn't live like him. I couldn't manage to be so unhappy with my life. We all get put into difficult situations at times. We either overcome it, or we let it consume us. But, sometimes when we deal with these situations to try to overcome them, it doesn't work or it takes a long time and it seems like nothing is working. That is when you have to think completely different and deal with it in a different way and then maybe you can overcome it. If you never do anything to solve your situation, or you give up on trying to solve things or compromise, that is when you are unhappy.
My friend asked me what I think happiness is. I thought about it and I really couldn't answer him at that time. But here I am thinking to myself, I know what happiness is. It's something that I have. And that is something that I want guaranteed in my life, and I think it will always be there. Sure, sometimes things happen, and I can't be happy for that moment. But for the most part of my life, happiness should be there. If it's not there, then it will be nobodies fault but my own.

I would want love is my one thing because if someone is loved and loves it makes it easy to be happy
