The Pursuit of Happiness

If you feel sad and unhappy on Valentine’s day, you need to read these couple of paragraphs.

You’ve probably heard people say, or maybe you’ve even said it yourself, that they want to be in a relationship to finally find happiness. In society, there’s this belief that if we’re miserable on our own, a good relationship will erase all our unhappiness.

And, initially, it often works. You find a man who pursues you, and things are exciting, full of passion and great. However, after a couple of months, when we start to act differently and change the initial conditions of the relationship a little by suddenly becoming too real, things gradually become as unhappy as they were before.

Or we stay in a relationship, and after the initial passion fades, we find ourselves unhappy again. It’s like the initial high has washed away, and we are back to where we started again.

I always find solace and self-reflection in quotes, so hope that these Valentine’s Day quotes for singles can bring you some comfort and empowerment as well.

Where True Love Comes From

Here’s the hard truth: how happy we are is not determined by the person we are with. It’s not determined by our job and possessions either. Our happiness depends on our baseline state of happiness that we ourselves create.

It’s that simple: we are responsible for how and what we feel. We were made to believe that we can only feel fulfilled in life if we have that special someone who makes us happy. It’s a lie.

Your happiness comes from within you, when you decide to see positive things in life and just enjoy it. You alone can take care of your thoughts and emotions and decide whether you’re a happy person or not. This is your baseline happiness and it can make you feel happy on a grey and rainy day.

Whenever you fall in love, go on a trip, buy something you desire, or experience anything unusual in your life, you will shortly go up in happiness levels. But after a short while, you’ll be back to your happiness baseline.

This is why it’s so important to work on being happy with just yourself, doing everyday things, waking up with a smile on your face. Things like gratitude, positive self-talk, self-compassion, self-prioritisation, and releasing control over things you have none of, are ways to improve your baseline happiness.

Manifest Him Into Your Life

We humans always seek connection with other human beings. The quality of our relationships has a huge influence on our mental well-being. So, even if you’re a person who already feels happy with just yourself and your amazing life, you still desire a good relationship and a man who will want to take care of you, provide for you, and support your future family.

Work on maintaining your positive attitude toward life and your future. Manifest him into your life by creating a list of non-negotiables and expressing gratitude to the universe for already working in your favour. Start manifesting through scripting in your journal and live as if you’re already in a loving relationship while enjoying the last moments of your singlehood.
