With all the madness around the world I think it is important to give everyone a reality check. The inspiration for writing this is because i just red an article about a woman putting a dog in a plastic bag, laughing and smiling about it, posting it on facebook. The police was literary on the door an hour later and the dog didn't die, don't worry. The point is we live in a world where people have fun torturing animals and each other. Our world problems ? If we can eat that ice cream or not.... Naturally everyone has different problems in the world so we cannot think like this all the time either. However we should start becoming more happy with our lives.
Most of us aren't struggling with having no food in our bodies, being tortured or being in war. Yet most people are not proud nor satisfied with the way their life is, since this is a fitness page it's often a dilemma about our bodies. Ever heard the term «Be proud, never satisfied» I call BULLSHIT ! If you are never satisfied, how can you ever be happy ? You have to look back and see how far you have gotten in your fitness journey and how much you have in general in life ! Assuming that most of us here still want more out of our bodies, think about how great you actually are ! Be PROUD be SATISFIED, don't walk around thinking i could have had a little bigger arms ! Goals like that comes with time anyway and supposing that you don't live in an area where people are out of their minds you have all the time in the world.
I personally really wish i could have done something with the big problems in the world, however since i cannot ride into war against all terrorists I am going to take up a war against not being happy. You see this is but a «luxury problem». None of us actually need a ripped beach body, or big muscles. It is all a part of the stupid body images that today's society have created. Recently there was a Norwegian celebrity who was on a model show as a judge and told a beautiful women she was chubby. Apparently because he couldn't see her ribs she was chubby... I happen to find her extremely attractive, why ? Because she looked healthy, she looked like a normal individual who worksout and eats healthy. When a celebrity says something like this, what happens ? We believe it, we think about it and it gets stuck in our heads.
I have repeatedly gone on Google and typed in «I am not happy with my life» only to be met by one thing: Not the answer. Why ? Because if you want to be satisfied with your life YOU need to make it so. The only person that can make you happy is the individual you see in the mirror. Naturally there is professionals to help on situations like this, but that won't solve the issue. I have some suggestions: Start smiling more, ignore every negative comment you would get about yourself, think about all that you do have not what you don't have !
People who live in poor places don't ever have the chance of building up their bodies. Their only life goal is to LIVE. To take care of their family and to survive the many diseases. I watched a movie recently and it was about situations in poor contries. For example a boy (10 years old) who lost both parents and now has to take care of his younger sister and brother. A child taking care of a child is the reality in many places in the world. It also displayed MANY sick childeren, who were likely to die very soon. Because in these contries almost everyone is malnourished, therefore unable to take care of themselves in the end, losing the battle against their disease.
What was the point of writing all this dude... ? Well honestly not to give you the answer to happiness it was to make you think. Simple as that. I wanted to write something that would make you realize that thinking is the very element that controls your happiness. If you made it all the way thru this post, I want to thank you, this means I have made you think which was my only goal for the day. You don't need big goals like gaining 10 kg of muscle in a week, my goal was simply to plot something into peoples head, now I’m just waiting for an epiphany to happen to you.
