True Happiness

I spent almost all my life searching for happiness in all wrong places. I was vulnerable to relationship because an empty void in my soul. In my heart I believed if I can find someone who truly love and care about me I was going to be happy. 

 

I never find love and happiness outside of my self, I tried and tried but nothing I was met with disappoinment after the other. Until I realized that all I needed was to search within me and find my self first. Because human beings are not perfect and are bound to error, my expectations towards them were unrealistic to a point where I set my self up for being hurt thinking others will make me happy. I have chosen my self now I have made a decision to let go of my past and live a fulfilled life with all my scars and short commings. 

 

Love is beautiful but the best love to give my self first is self love. This decision was not easy because I have risk my life in so many occasions but I have decided to accept and love my self.
