The Pursuit of Happiness

I woke up with a big need of writting... What to write? I don't know, I just felt the need of sharing once again some of the thoughts that crossed my mind lately.
People live their life searching for happiness, what it's that? To have a lover? To create a family? To have the job of you life? To be where you want to be? To do what you want to do? To have good friends?
All this things can help you to being happy, depending in wich are your life's objectives. Remember: happyness it's not and end, but a way.
Don't live searching for it, live having it in everything you do!
Fight for your dreams, cause if you really fight for them, they can happen! If they don't it's because is not the time to them yet.

Since more or less 3 month I started to have my full independence. It's amazing when you feel you're the only one who control your life. That you have the power to make decisions by your own, that you can do what you like.
In only 3 month I already made many things that I never had done, because the money I had wasn't really mine, wasn't earned by me.
And you know what? I'm happy! Of course I will not tell you that life's perfect, because it isn't indeed. It's hard to be away of my family and all life friends, it's hard to live in a foreign country where you have to speak another language, where you don't know many people, where you find that many of your life meanings don't really exist, but only depends on you to adapt yourself to that.
I can say I already have some friends here, I can say that I started to enjoy a kind of job that isn't at all my dream job, I can say I learned already many things about others and most important, I learned a lot about myself!

To end this post I just want to let you an advice: don't make depend your happiness of what doesn't depend on you and simplify things. That way you'll fell that life's amazing!

Have a nice night and enjoy every moment, cause one day you'll not be here to read this thoughts!

CARPE DIEM!

Safety and Risk

Risk - Wake up, life is waiting for you!
Safety - I just wanna stay in the comfort of my bed, here I feel safe.
Risk - Are you crazy? One day you'll notice that to live always for the safe it's not living, and then will be to late and you'll regret for losing the precious time in your bed.
Safety - But here I know it's almost impossible to I get hurt, to suffer or to something bad happen.
Risk - Yes, so stay there and in a few years we talk.

10 years later...

Risk - How it's the comfort of your bed?
Safety - The same as 10 years ago, starts to get boring, but I'm so used to it, that I'm afraid to change. And your crazy life?
Risk - I've had good and bad moments, I laughed, I cried, I had fun, I met good and bad people, I traveled around the world and lost myself several times, I got hurt many times, but then I just got up stronger and happier than before, I made many mistakes, but I learned with them, so I don't regret anything, because everything lasted the time it had to last to be unforgettable!
Safety - Really? But you seem so happy to a person o lived all those bad things...
Risk - And I am! Because I look back and I see that I got the most I could from life, the good and the bad, and I learned some lessons every time something bad happened.
Safety - I'm in the 30's an I didn't tried anything new because I was afraid. Do you think it's possible to you teach me how to live like you? It seems funny...
Risk - It's never too late to start living! Come on, let's show you the fun of the life!

Thougts

The name of this blog it's horizons of my thoughts, and I don't remember to talk exactly about thoughts.

Lately some people have being telling me that I think too much.
Maybe that's truth, maybe not... I'm trying to figure out if, in fact, I should think less, or if I think the enough to live my life happy and relaxed, without falling in places that can bring me pain.
It's kind of funny how your thoughts change along your life. When things you told you would never do, you do them, and you enjoy. Food you don't like when you try the first time, and a few years later you like. People that at first time you have a less good impression, and then became good friends, and the other side too. Works you    say you will not want to do and then you do them and you feel realised.

Life it's a surprise box with good and bad things, you can't control all of them, but you can choose how you react to them. For some you have to think before you take the desicions, for other you just have to folow your instint and live the moment without thinking what can happen then, or how will things go be after it. If in those cases things turn into a way that you don't really understand, you just think how to get over it in the best way, and make your move.

Many people say that you should never follow your heart, other say that you shouldn't follow your brain.
I do both! And when one of them speaks louder, I try to calm it down and get the right balance.


Think the enough and Carpe Diem!!!
