Limitations in life

It just struck me again last night, how each one of us is responsible for our own happiness, and how I can't do a damn thing to make anybody content in this world, let alone making them happy in any way.

Happiness is not really elusive at all.  
I'm starting to really believe, be convinced by, the fact that it is a choice, a state of mind that we can all tap into when we decide to do so.

And the first step towards true happiness must surely be contentment, or perhaps it is the last?  The jury is still out on this.
Contentment has to be Maslow's last step:  self-fulfillment.  If you are content, you must be self-fulfilled.

But at the end of the day, we all row our own canoe, and there is not a person in this world we can blame if our lives don't end up the way we want them to be.

We were present all along.

 
Paddle your own canoe. 
Don't forget.
