Your Soul Expansion Starts Here

I wanted to share something that’s been on my mind lately, after a conversation with someone who said they find it hard to be happy when they’re not acting like they’re happy. And it really made me pause and think.

Because honestly, I think so many of us feel this way. Like, unless we’re trying to be happy, we just don’t feel much of anything. But here’s the thing — that space where you’re not sad, but not happy either, that might not be unhappiness. That might just be you being. Just awareness. Just existing.

We often expect ourselves to feel good all the time, or at least better than we do. But we’re not meant to be constantly buzzing with excitement. Sometimes life is still. Sometimes it’s quiet. And sometimes we’re just getting through the day without a big feeling either way. And that’s okay.

But if it’s more than that — if it does feel heavy, or like something’s missing — then it might be time to ask yourself, “What can I do to lift myself a little today?”

Because this is the part so many of us forget:
Happiness is a choice.
Not in a forced, fake-it-til-you-make-it way.
But in the sense that we are the ones who create it.

We can’t sit around waiting for life to change before we feel better. We can’t wait for someone to message us, or for the weekend, or for everything to be perfect. We have to make the choice to do things that bring joy back into our world.

Even if it’s small — putting on music you love, going for a walk, tidying a corner of your space, having a laugh with someone, drinking a hot cup of tea and actually enjoying it. These little things add up. They shift your energy bit by bit. And when you start creating those moments, happiness doesn’t feel so far away anymore.

So if you’ve been feeling a bit flat, ask yourself — am I actually unhappy, or just disconnected from the things that make me feel good?

And if it’s the second one, come back to yourself. Do something for you today. Not because you have to, but because you deserve to feel good again. You deserve to feel like you again.
