Be Happy. It is a gift to others

Don’t ever feel guilty for putting your own peace or happiness first.🙏🏼 I used to think that that was “selfish”. That I couldn’t live the life I really wanted to live if I wasn’t striving to “make a difference”. But what good is trying to help others before helping yourself? Nowww I know that it simply doesn’t work. Ultimately I was left feeling like something was missing, like my happiness was partly dependent on my achievements and ability to help others.

However, when you are doing what you TRULY want to do, and not what you think you “should” do, it feels different. When are moving from a place of what comes naturally to you, makes you happy and fulfills you from within (regardless of the results) you don’t even need to make an extra effort to help others. It just happens automatically. In the same way that our hearts pump blood to the rest of our bodies...We don’t have to “try”. If everyone was to unapologetically put their own happiness first, the pieces of the puzzle would just fit together. We could be gifting each other all day every day without even intending to. 🖤
