Happiness begins with you

For most persons happiness seems to be something that is out of reach,They need something or someone to make themselves happy. And when this is not achieved these individuals are some of the most depressed around.But in order to be happy one has to start with his/herself.
Making yourself happy certainly begins with you. Nobody can make you happy but you. When last have you looked in the mirror and say to your face staring back at you, " You are beautiful, I like you as you are."? When last have you brought yourself something to please you and not to please someone else? We spend time doing things that we consider special to please others and not ourselves. If there's someone coming to visit, we spend time making our homes beautiful to entertain that individual. Yet we have no time to make it delightful for ourselves.We are obsessed with presenting an image of ourselves to others but deep down we are so dissatisfied with ourselves.

What is happiness?

 Is happiness just a fleeting notion or is it something that can be attained? The Webster Dictionary defines happiness as " a state of well-being and contentment." but many still does not realize that you have to develop that state for yourself. Needing someone to make you happy means you are setting yourself up for a fall.
