Happiness is a choice I make


Before you proceed to read any further, I should tell you’ll that this is not the best of my writing (not that I’m claiming that I write really well!) so I’m just warning you’ll. This might not even send out any message for all I know, so it is basically just pointless jibber -jabber. Read on if you wish to do so.

It has definitely been a while since I wrote here…A year?? Wow!! Last I remember was me sitting in my room and pouring out everything. And now I’m done with college and am back here in Dubai, (apparently where I belong) with family.
So, to those who don’t know me, I spent the past three years in Bangalore to do my undergraduation. That was a phase, that was what I went there for, I did it, I finished it and I’m back. And to be honest with you’ll…I hate being back! I miss that place, the city, the friends I made and all the memories created everywhere.
I was miserable when I came “home” initially…and I was looking forward to when that next trip to Bangalore may be. And I never enjoyed anything I did, not one moment , even if I was among friends .I was depressed in my head, and I kept telling myself that I was done, that I have nothing to look forward to. There is no romantic string that is yanking me there for those who think that might be the reason. So to answer you’ll, NO its not it, It’s just the place I think. I was never more myself anywhere else before in my life, and the friends I made added to the whole experience.
But well, I realized that nothing is going to change and I have to make do with what I have and the opportunities I’m given. And then tonight, after all this time, it suddenly hits me! Happiness is a choice I make; it’s not decided by anyone else but me. I can choose to be happy no matter how bad a situation is.  Yes, you’ll probably already know that... (Ooooh! You smart people!!). I need to choose to let go of all those fears and miseries I have in my head. I decide.

I’m in this relationship where communication seems to be a bit of a problem, so bad because sometimes I wonder whether I am in one or not?? And I used to constantly keep telling myself that he must have someone else there to fill up the space, or he is the kind where he needs the attention and someone to constantly be there, and whether I should trust him or not. But then I realized...why should I bother?? Because at the end of the day I’m the one who is going to be worried sick, when I haven’t done anything! So I let go, I let go of the constant need to know whether he is wrong or whether it’s a waste of time and dissing the whole idea of love, relationship and all, because frankly, it’s not worth it! No one is worth the trouble, the stress, the sadness, the tears and sleeplessness.

This is probably the worst I’ve written, and I am quite aware of it as well. This just had to be done to help me vent and I’m happy I did it. Well to everyone out there who is worried sick because of someone else, DON’T! Because you CAN be happy, you CAN just choose to see all the right things and put all those teeny tiny problems at the background and out of focus. And also, if it comes to a point where you have to deal with it, deal with it with grace and a smile on your face. (Also because the smile annoys the crap out of the other person! =D)
Be HAPPY, from within and out!
