At times, you may wonder what is it all for without really thinking about what does it all mean. To know the truth of the matter, you must know what is the matter. The question you need to ask yourself is, “Why do I have to be happy?”

Happiness is the lack of desire for doubt in your life. Happiness is a summation of goodness and love. Love from within is an excitable matter that comes from looking not at the big picture, but rather looking in the mirror. It is not what surrounds you that makes you happy, it is yourself that makes you happy. 

To know yourself, you must ask, “What do I know?” Through this simple course of action, you may witness the true desire for yourself on an earthly level.

To create the happiness you need in this lifetime, it is necessary to create the happiness yourself. Practice the need for less doubt in your life by focusing on love and hope; this in turn brings happiness forward.
