I am self sabotaging. There are things that I want in life and when I get something akin to them, I am happy, and then I want more. I read "Choosing Civility" by P.M. Forni, and in this book they say two really important things.
1. Life is difficult.
2. Be happy. Don't be an " if this happens " person. Because once those things happen, you will have new things on your " if only this would happen I would be happy " list. You will always be grasping at happiness.
I know number one. But number two. Well, I am a happiness grasper. I don't really know how to change it. This goes hand in hand with " making your own movie ". Maybe Forni and Fox should get together?
I need to choose happiness. I cannot keep grasping at it. I need to keep it. Despite what I may think will make me happy, having love, hope, peace, and happiness in my heart and soul will keep me there forever. Life will live.
