Happiness

Most of the shadows of this life are caused by our standing in our own sunshine.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

We often get in the way of our own happiness. We worry about what other people will think of the choices we make and hesitate to do the things that make us happy. Or if we are faced with a difficult situation, we take the easy way out because we don't believe we are capable of finding a way through it. We tend to give up before even trying because we are afraid of failing. And we never are truely happy.
