  • I would say that most things in life are changeable. Being happy with yourself doesn’t mean you stop striving to be better. It means you accept yourself for your faults and all. Strive to be a better version of yourself every day no matter how small. Start small changes and build up.

    I hear people say “You are perfect just the way you are” but that isn’t true. Perfection is a goal to never be achieved but is always sought after.

    I do not speak to the aspects of our political landscape or the position of our society but the framing of our lives and how we can effect it.

    In fact I found quite a bit more happiness and perspective when I seperated myself from political and societal issues.

    I appreciate your candor in these talks.


  • I believe it is easier to see mentally ill people because I was depressed at one point and noticing the behaviors is easier. While I don’t subscribe to the “we are all mentally ill” frame of mind, I do believe that it is a good majority of humans.

    I believe that chasing happiness is ultimately impossible. However, being happy with ones self and coming to terms with your reality and accepting what you can and cannot change is possible. Do not dwell on what you cannot change and change what you can.

    I have noticed through my own actions and the action of others that we limit ourselves through self sabotage. If we sabotage ourselves and stop ourselves from actually failing then we already know the outcome and cannot be more discouraged than if we actually try. This is why I say accept failure and learn from it. “It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life” -Jean-Luc Picard
