"Happiness isn't always the best way to be happy."


I watched Where the Wild Things Are tonight, and that movie never fails to make me think of myself and life.

What are the things i'm running away from? 
What are my monsters?
What am I not facing up to? 
am I Max? 

 There are monsters in each of us, so how to face each one is a challenge in life. 
Whether it is jealousy, loneliness, anger, confusion, fear, shame, etc. 
We Have To Face Them and Overcome Them. 
One quote that really made me think was "Happiness isn't always the best way to be happy." I think it's important to remember that we are responsible for our own happiness.

I've learned that it is best to not  kick and scream my way through the hard times or run away from them. But to instead face them head on. Hard times are inevitable and no one is perfect, but there will always be those that love us to welcome us back.

 "Inside all of us is hope. Inside all of us is fear. Inside all of us is adventure. Inside all of is ... a wild thing.


Overcome your FEARS, have HOPE, and LIVE your adventure.
