it's been said somewhere in order to live a good life and to have joy in your life, you must seek happiness within oneself. You can't depend on someone else to make you happy and to make you whole. I believe it to be true but I also believe you can find happiness through others like for instance your mate or a REAL good friend.
Is it a bad thing to seek happiness from others and does it make you a needy/clingy person, or even insecure, or is it that you feel this special person makes you happy because of their energy they bring to you when you interact with them... it's the true connection you have with this person that makes you happy.
We all want to be happy in our journey in life, don't we? and somehow some way through our careers, families, hobbies, and for some us our spiritualities, we seek and confide in these things for happiness. Not just within ourselves or from within. theirs some outer part that fulfills us. So, my dilemma is how do you independently become into this blissful happiness without being co-dependent, and how do you discover it within yourself? is it through experiences or is it through the people in your life.
...and why can't it be both? okay, I'm confusing myself. I'm just frustrated with this question and I would like your opinion about it.
My rant is really based on love and I know you have to love yourself before you can love anyone else but what if you love yourself and you project that towards others, aren't you seeking love back from someone or something?
