🌈 5 things to stop thinking about if you want to live a happy life

1. "Fear that others do not like us."

→ Seriously... some people still don't like ripe mangoes, even though they're so sweet. 🍋

Don't waste your power trying to like everyone.

2. "Compare your life to others."

→ Different pitches, different paths 🛣

Some people run on the gold track lane, but we're equally good at running on our way.

3. "Think a lot about the past."

→ It's passed. Like food eaten and spit again, it's not delicious. 😅

Keep it a lesson, not a burden.

4. "Think for everyone else"

→ Guess better than Google, but finally stress yourself.

If you really want to know, it's easier to ask. ❤️

5. "I think happiness must be huge."

→ Maybe it's just a cup of coffee, a good song, and someone who understands us. ☕🎶

Really happy, it's small but tight!

✨ remember, "Life is short. Don't take the time to think negatively of yourself."

Live lightly and we'll smile more easily every day. 🤍

... Read moreเคยรู้สึกไหมว่าความสุขของเราบางทีก็ไปไม่ถึงเป้าหมายที่ตั้งไว้ เหมือนกำลังวิ่งตามความคาดหวังที่คนอื่นวางไว้ ข้อสำคัญคือเราต้องเข้าใจก่อนว่าความสุขของแต่ละคนไม่เหมือนกันจริง ๆ โดยเฉพาะเวลาที่เราพยายามจะทำให้ทุกคนพอใจ หลายครั้งมันก็ทำให้เราหมดแรงและเสียโฟกัสจริง ๆ การยอมรับว่าไม่ทุกคนจะชอบสิ่งที่เราทำ (แม้เราอาจคิดว่ามันดีมากก็ตาม) จะช่วยให้เราเบาลงและกล้าที่จะเป็นตัวเองมากขึ้น ในฐานะคนที่เคยเปรียบเทียบตัวเองกับคนอื่นมาก่อน จะบอกว่าเส้นทางแต่ละคนต่างกัน เหมือนแข่งวิ่งคนละสนาม และถ้าเราทุ่มเทกับเส้นทางของตัวเองให้ดีที่สุด ความสุขก็จะตามมาเอง อีกหนึ่งข้อที่ช่วยได้มากคือลืมอดีตที่ทำให้เครียดและกังวล เพราะสิ่งที่ผ่านไปแล้วเปลี่ยนไม่ได้ การเก็บมันไว้เป็นบทเรียนมากกว่าจะกลายเป็นภาระใจ เป็นวิธีที่เราใช้ปลดล็อกความคิดลบและโฟกัสกับปัจจุบันมากขึ้น สุดท้าย การมองหาความสุขจากสิ่งเล็ก ๆ รอบตัว เช่น กาแฟแก้วโปรด เพลงที่ชอบ หรือการมีคนเข้าใจเรา จะช่วยเติมเต็มหัวใจและทำให้ชีวิตเรามีความหมายมากกว่าคำว่าความสุขใหญ่โตที่หลายคนมองหา ทั้งหมดนี้คือก้าวเล็ก ๆ ที่ช่วยให้เราปลดปล่อยตัวเองจากความคิดลบ และใช้ชีวิตได้อย่างมีความสุขในแบบฉบับของเราเอง ลองเปิดใจให้กับตัวเอง และรับรู้ว่าความสุขที่แท้จริงคือการได้เป็นคนที่มีความสุขในแบบของตัวเองค่ะ

Struggles with Prayer and Overthinking.
I have a tendency to overthink things. I could simply say “Hi” instead of “Hello” and think about it for a week. I fail to be present because my mind is in the past. I also have a tendency to overthink my prayers. That they aren’t good enough. That God won’t hear me. I think about praying in fron
