Happy People Are Annoying

by Josh Peck

“Find the people who support you to be what you want to be, who push you to be your very best, and if you find yourself in a room with someone who doesn’t make you feel that way, leave immediately.”

“Let me ask you this, what are you willing to let go that stands between you and happiness? The obvious stuff is easy, that anger you’ve been holding on to, that resentment. But what about the things you think are assets? That relationship you think you can’t live without, that job you think defines you, can you let go of that? Because, if you’re really serious about getting happy, you might be forced to let it all go, to know you can be okay without it. Because you’re the fish you’re trying to catch, you are the love of your life, you’re everything you’ve been searching for.”

The hard times are here to teach us, and the good times are to remind us what we’re fighting for.
