Don't wish me happiness - I don't expect to be happy it's gotten beyond that, somehow. Wish me courage and strength and a sense of humor - I will need them all.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you asked somebody, 'what do you wish for in life?' they wouldn't say 'happiness.' I would have answered 'excitement, knowledge,' God knows - I mean, many, many different things, but certainly not 'happiness'. It seemed like a foreign concept to wish for something that specific and that singular.
Sometimes people ask, 'What do you wish for your children?' and all I say is, 'I want them to be happy being them.'
I wish people could achieve what they think would bring them happiness in order for them to realize that that's not really what happiness is.
I never said I wanted a 'happy' life but an interesting one. From separation and loss, I have learned a lot. I have become strong and resilient, as is the case of almost every human being exposed to life and to the world. We don't even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward.
Happiness for me is getting to write about the most important things I know.
I've never been a person to wish for stuff - I just take it as it comes.
There's just so many things I wanna do. At the end of the day, I wanna be happy.
The secret of happiness is: Find something more important than you are and dedicate your life to it.
I am married and happy. My only wish is that nothing will change.
I've realized through the years that I just find happiness in other things, whether it's my dogs or my friends or, like, looking at the sunset. So if I were to wish for something else, it would just to be happy all the time, to have a superpower of not letting things affect me, and to be true to who I am, always.
