Happiness is a Journey, not a destination

"Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So, work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, Sing as if no one can hear you and Dance like no one's watching."

From the moment I heard this quote, I fell in love. I don't quite remember how I happened to come by it but it was at a time in my life when I needed to hear it. It single handly changed the way I lived my life. I was always playing it safe, always tried to take what I thought was the easier route but everytime I ended up unhappy. Instead of following my true passions, I did what I thought was smarter and what others told me I SHOULD be doing. Should is a word i'm not very fond of. I figured if I went to college, got a job that paid great money and found a great boyfriend, I would be happy. Not so much. I learned that pretty quickly. It was never the life I wanted but I was more into pleasing others, that I never thought about myself. Now, I don't let others determine how I live my life. I refuse to settle. I work doing what I love to do, even though I'm not making a ton of money but I'm happy. I try to go full force in whatever I set my mind to do. There are no boundaries. I live for today and in the moment. I'm what you call a total free spirit and I love it. I have a passion for helping the youth of today, movies, art and dance. So, these are some things I will be talking about in my blog. I love to motivate and inspire people through my passions. Enjoy.
