Don’t give Anyone the Responsibility to make you Happy
It’s not anybody’s job to make you happy. It’s your responsibility. So stop expecting other people to take away the loneliness in your heart. You are powerful enough to take charge of your own emotions. Happiness is a choice that you need to make every single day. It depends on how you see things and the situations around you. It’s not about what people did to you, but it’s how you see their actions that make you feel glad. You will be disappointed if you let somebody dictate your joy because nobody can do it but you. It’s like you are hiring a person with a job that is impossible…

Your Success means Nothing if your Character will be Destroyed in the end
Never compromise your character just for you to achieve success. Who you are on the inside is like a foundation that shouldn’t be shaken by the temporary treasures of this world. Remember that God’s standard is different. He sees your heart, and He knows what can truly make you happy. So instead of insisting on the things that you wanted to achieve, choose to consult Him and let Him lead you to the right way. Who you are on the inside is more important than what other people physically see. This life is not about gaining honor for yourself, but it’s about glorifying God in the end. Only Him can…
