Disconnecting from social media and toxic family helped me tremendously.

I find great pleasure in doing things alone, especially the spa. Bringing people along usually messes up the vibe. 😂😂😂

Mother Nature is the ultimate truth of life. Blossoming when the time is right, letting go peacefully when the time is right. She encourages a peaceful pace, relaxation, love, appreciation, compassion. She is an artist (just look at the leaves right now!) and the ultimate mentor we should be looking to. Using this negative language toward Mother Nature is patriarchal and unhealthy. ❤

I've been walking each day for 3 years straight in the mornings and it's my medicine 💜💜💜

Mother Earth wants her children to be happy, she loves us for what we are. She gives us air and water, food and fire. Without her love and nurture we could not live. If you look at the rest of her children, the animals, the birds , the fish the trees and floers, we'll see the beauty and fulfilment that can be lived here on Earth.

"Social Media is THE JUNK FOOD of Social Life . " Arthur Brooks 🔥🔥🔥

I follow Black Women on YT who travel alone and live alone, and they are genuinely happy. They find pride in following their dreams, exploring new places, and challenging themselves. And they are making meaningful memories. The greatest relationship you will ever have is the one with yourself. Friends and family are wonderful additions to life, but you CAN find happiness even if you are alone.

I have a different perspective about being alone. Being alone and doing what you love brings you happiness.

Some of the most amazing and life changing trips I've taken have been solo and meeting people and having unexpected experiences along the way❤

What about people who love their solitude and find enjoyment in tranquility. That's their happiness.

About a year and a half ago I totally gave up Facebook. I had gotten addicted to it !! Thought I'd miss it but instead I feel emotionally better and so glad I gave it up . YouTube is the only social media I watch now and sometimes I watch too much YouTube but I do get good information.

I’ve been wrestling with feelings of, regret and stagnation. Listening to this discussion boosted my mood and gave me the spark I needed. I look forward to purchasing and reading this book.

Happiness is a show without commercials.

I wish this coild be translate to Spanish, our community could benefit from this❤ I have found out that my happiness is about living a simpler life and enjoying my time with my immediate family , friend's, dancing and church, and traveling ❤❤❤to meet new people. I also looooove my alone time , that also brings happiness to my life 😊❤

Great ideal; unfortunately the reality is if you r an introvert like myself and would usually like to enjoy partying by myself it saves the scrutiny of being around other people and enjoying myself. Other people drain me in a short time. The world has changed. When he spoke of the commercials that’s just simple marketing. Being an introvert doesn’t s mean u r lonely, lacking or striving to have friendships it’s just that we need a time to be with people and a time to go to our corner and regroup. I wish people who were extroverts didn’t look at us as lost souls.

Happiness for you ,it is not the same for me.The most Important thing its that nobody control your own life.❤ Other wise you loose everything. You will be a puppet in their hands of others. Keep the control of your own life because only it matters to you .

Oprah is looking stunning !

social media is the junk food of the social life - so good 🙌

TRYING to be happy won’t make you happy. Enjoy the moment you’re in and BE happy. Grateful for being alive.
