Key for Happiness

I was reading an article about being Happy. The only key mantra written is do not dependent on others emotionally. If you are Happy you can create a happy environment for others. It made me realize that I am really dependent on my family members, more concern about their happiness. Are you too emotionally dependent on others?

Human being is a social animal! Being so he/she likes to stay in society with full of happiness! With time and gaining experience with age one automatically learns how to be happy and how to make others happy. Initially, I was a son to my parents, brother to my sibling, friend to my friends, student to my teacher....having grown up and now at this age i have got many more roles to play and I get satisfaction in each which makes me happy and in turn i make people around me happy! This is a temporary phase to depend on someone for happiness...with time I am sure you willl learn to be happy all by your self ! Thanks @neha211985

Not at all thank goodness. I know some people who are and when their circumstances change and they no longer have that person in their life, they have no idea how to care for themselves or even who they are anymore. It is sad to see so many people lose themselves in their emotional relationships.

At present I am not depended emotionally on any one. I also learnt not to depend any one for happiness. It is true we have to be associated with the society but attached to be with God alone. However, I agree, it is not an easy concept of being this way.

Emotionally independent can mean a lot of things. I want my family to be happy, but I have to be happy first in order for me to serve their happiness.

We are in charge of our own happiness and I myself do not depend my happiness to anybody.

Most of us do. I do too that is why I told myself that I should learn to love myself more so that I can share love and happiness to others. The more you rely on others and when they fail you, it would be devastating. Remember, at the end of the day, you are the only one responsible for your well-being.
