Day 6: Single and Happy

Listening to unsolicited and popular social stigma, the words single and happy don't really mix well together. For a lot of people, they view a person who is single to be sad, pitiful, and even pathetic at times.

For them, a person can truly be happy in the arms of another person. While that may be true for them, that may not be true for everybody. And I say, it shouldn't be the case.

They say that the words single and happy don't mix? Well, I say that they are inseparable concepts. Here's my take about it, "single and happy" should really be a one description kind of thing. It shouldn't be single or happy. It must really be "single and happy".

I mean, if you can't be happy when you're single, I doubt that you'll truly be happy with someone else. You can't really place your happiness in the hands of other people. You should not depend your state of being happy on them. If that will be the case, then you will just be vulnerable and all you will is reasons why you aren't happy.

You should be contented with your own company, you should learn how to take control of your emotions, and you should take control of your happiness. If you could be happy on your own, that's the time that you can share true happiness with another person.

It's alright, if you want to eat Unlimited Korean BBQ alone, then do it. It's alright if you want to see a movie yourself, that way you can focus more on your movie and don't have to share your popcorn with anyone else, it's alright. Take yourself on a date, nothing is wrong with that. Nothing is wrong in pampering yourself and showing yourself the treatment and the love you deserve. It's alright if you want to dress and doll up and walk around the mall alone, maybe wine and dine on your own. There is nothing wrong with that.

Don't let the notion that you must be lonely because you are doing things by yourself stop you from doing more of what you really want to do. It's alright to do more of the things that make you happy alone. Anyone who says otherwise isn't happy on their own, that's why they are forcing you the idea that made them miserable in the first place. Don't let them win, the ability to be happy is in your hands.

Don't even for one second think that your happiness lies on another person's hands. The moment you do that, that's the moment you'll lose control of your own happiness and you will end up chasing it to any corner of the lonesome world.

Again, it is possible to be single and happy at the same time. It's not just a possibility, it should be the norm, it should be the first step of falling in love and entering a relationship. You should first be happy being single before you take on a bigger boat and be a partner to another human being.

So... are you single? Be happy! If you're not, I wish you would be.
