7 days to happiness

"This course had shown me a new way of looking at how my own version of happiness doesn’t have to meet anyone else’s standards"

Before this program I always felt I had to be or live up to my expectation of what I believed other people’s expectation of me was. I have two very different worlds - the exterior and the interior. 
My interior beliefs are shameful or laughable to many of my culture. I keep most of it to myself. It’s hard to live in this ‘real world’ sometimes as it’s a picture of happiness does not often resonate with me s as bc I feel lost within in. 
This course had shown me a new way of looking at how my own version of happiness doesn’t have to meet anyone else’s standards. One day - when I am better from my current illness - I hope I remember what I’m learning and uncovering and stay more true to myself instead of letting my ego ‘protect’ me from myself and in doing so live a life that’s not really real to me.
