Painting and Positivity

I just barely finished my first painting in Paris! It's due in class tomorrow so I guess it's a good thing I finished it. 

It's dark and the lighting is bad because my roommate is asleep.

So some people believe that happiness can be achieved at anytime and that you can be happy if you simply chose to be. But lately i have experienced first hand that the people you surround yourself with directly affects your happiness. I am a firm believer that people receive the energy they put out to the universe. But by choosing the people that are in your life, I think that is the way you are in control of your happiness. But convincing yourself that you are happy while everyone around you is bringing you down and you feel stuck in a boring job or whatever, does not really work. If you put out positive vibes, you will get positive vibes back and have happy people come into your life which will make you even happier. It's a big cycle! The people you surround yourself with make a huge difference in your experience. Everyone needs positive people in their life! You can't have horrible friends and negative relationships and convince yourself that you are really happy.

Done with my rant. Like I said, I have experienced this theory first hand! And now I am having fantastic time with my wonderful friends :) 

Bonne nuit!
