Hmm. Decided to try to be happy again just this evening. Had a true test of my ability just now. I wonder if the circumstances permit me to be unhappy or I must still be happy? For one, I know it would be somewhat irrational to be unhappy at this situation. All sorts of reasons I can give, but none that I can really accept completely. Hmm. How to be happy. When every day conspires to get you down. To keep a smile on your face. To see the light at the end of every tunnel. Well as Ian said, I probably definitely haven't let go of her completely yet. Some slivers still linger. Or perhaps everything of her. It's just that I've been burying all these somewhere else. Haha. Doing a happiness quiz now. "How happy are you?"

Your own worse critic
You're not a very happy bunny are you? You try hard, you're well meaning, but inside you is that little voice that screams 'I'm not good enough'.

In short, your lack of happiness is down to what's happening inside you - you never feel contented because you are always striving for maximum success and even if you reach it, you don't feel you deserve to enjoy it.

But happiness isn't something that you get just by hard work. Yes, reaching goals and getting where you want in life is important, but to be truly happy, you need to be at peace with yourself.

People who are at peace with themselves generally do much more and much better in life than those who try hard all the time. Learn to value what you do and you'll not only feel happier, you'll also be more effective.
