I seriously think it's true what 'they' say, "90% of your happiness is determined by the people who you spend your life with". I recently recognized that if you don't like someone for everything they are within the honeymoon stage of knowing someone, then things probably wont last. This goes for friendship and relationships. I noticed I've been severely influenced by all of these movies that have come out portraying the message that a stronger person can "fix" a weaker person.. all withing the first few months of knowing them. This is simply preposterous. You can't fix something you don't know is broken. A good friend once told me, how can you fix someone if you have never seen them in any other state but broken? For example, If I have known happy go lucky Bob for six years and he seems sad lately.. I can try to fix him and bring him back to his natural state. But if I have known Tom for two months and he is just sad all the time, how do I know what his natural state is?
This is a bit wordy and deep I know. All I'm basically saying is, surround yourself with people who genuinely make you happy and people that you make happy. It will make the world of a difference in your life.
I'm working on it. ;]
All for now,

p.s. It's easy to be miserable, there is always something to cry about. Happiness is the ability to overcome the easy way out.
