Happiness

Fear. It leads to anger, depression, anxiety, and all those wonderful things. As such, if you are angry at someone, or are overly depressed all the time, it is usually connected to a fear. Not necessarily a fear of something like spiders or ghosts or jellyfish (I am deathly afraid of jellyfish...) but a deep-rooted, subconscious fear. The fear that someone doesn't care for you . The fear that you cant trust someone. The fear that someone is going to do you harm. My mother apparently has a deep-rooted fear of people thinking her house is a mess. :) The key to being happy, then, is to overcome your fear. Why care about what someone thinks about you? If they don't like the fact that you wear yellow socks, thats their problem, not yours. If you cant trust someone, then don't tell them anything. Find someone else. If you think someone is going to harm you, then avoid them. Or tell someone about it. There is always a way out, always a way around, always a way to become happy. :)
