Inspiration of the day 13-4-10

"There is no value in life except what you choose to place upon it and no happiness in any place except what you bring to it yourself." Henry David Thoreau

I've met too many individuals who rely on other people/things for happiness. It could be a job, a hobby, a spouse, money, etc. These can all be GREAT, but they're also external - meaning that unless you have found happiness on the inside as well, these alone will never be enough. Think today of all the different external things that bring happiness to your life at this time, and ask yourself - what would you do (or how would you manage to be happy) if each and every one of them were taken away from you? The answer is sometimes scary, but definitely worth asking & finding! -from Sammy Rivera
