This topic is very important.
We were given a life, but we often make desicions not by ourselves, and somebody else or the society make desicions for us. We often put ourselves into a bondage of opinions and thoughts of others.
Thereby, living not our life at all...that is why there are so many unhappy people.
It's impossible to be happy , living someone else's lives.
So how do we come out of all that? How do we find an answer?
By finding out the answer within ourselves. We always know it, we just often choke it, not wishing to hear it, as that creates a pressure of others on us. It's not always that the people whom are surrounding us are happy, when we don't satisfy their expectations. But, by following our inner path, we will gain a true happiness! Only then...there is no need to go against yourself.
Need to learn how to distinguish the truth from the lie.
There is no need to deceive anyone and ourselves, the truth anyway will find a way to come out.
