Happiness does not come from without, it comes from within
We talk about taking "pleasure in a thing": but in truth it is pleasure in ourselves, mediated by a thing.
Joy is not in things; it is in us.
Joy is not a thing, it is in us.
False pleasures come from without and are imperfect: happiness is internal and our own.
Happiness comes from within.
Your joy lies within you.
Why should we build our happiness on the opinons of others, when we can find it in our own hearts?
Happiness isn't something that depends on our surroundings... It's something we make inside ourselves.
We are ourselves our happiness.
My parents- they've been my biggest influences and supporters since day one. They teach me every day that happiness comes from within and not from something outside of your heart.
I'm an inherently happy person. It comes from the inside, which means you can achieve happiness under any circumstance.
