Filling In What Fits

There are times when we feel like we have the need to fill those empty spaces in our hearts. It's almost like pursuing happiness, in a way we feel like we will be full if we get what we want. But it's not only once we heard the saying "sometimes what you want is not what you need", it's already written on the back of our head, supposedly. Fortunately or unfortunately, when you fill those empty spaces with what you want, most of the time, it doesn't fit, because it isn't what you need, indeed.

You thought you knew what's best for you, like you get a clue of what you need, but the truth is sometimes and perhaps most of the time, you don't. And personally, I learned my lesson today, there's nothing worse than filling yourself with what you thought was your happiness, only to find out that you're not even close to full at the end of the day. Like you're repelling happiness out of your heart.

This is a thing I've been dealing the past couple of days. And the past couple of days had been very dynamic to deal with. At the moment, I am still very much searching for what do I really need, or better more finding where what I want meets what I need.

Perhaps, we just need to stop looking, and maybe put more attention to the surroundings, on finding what fits. Or... maybe, next time you look in the mirror, always remember that happiness comes from within. :)
