Oh Julie, you are so right in saying ‘having the courage to make the necessary change’. There are times in life when place and circumstances in our outside world are simply not working for us, and some people never find the courage to make the change. I love the book ‘Who Moved My Cheese’ [http://www.whomovedmycheese.com/] for summing this up. It does take incredible courage to do what you have done and continue to do and I absolutely admire you.

Anyway, it’s getting late at the time of writing for me, so I will away and wish you a warm and cosy sleep! It’s a howling Southerly here tonight!

Best wishes, Sarah

In reply to Sarah.

Sarah
You never cease to amaze with your generous spirit and honesty of thought. You are right that true happiness comes from within. For some people it takes longer to find that inner peace and for others they never find what they are looking for. I have always known what would make me happiest, it was just having the courage to make the necessary change to achieve it.

I just watched that film and it wasn’t quite the Saturday night I’d planned – I felt very depressed after watching it! But also very grateful that my family and I are able to enjoy life, wherever we are. We never ran away to find the good life, we already had it and will always have it – happiness truly comes from inside. Circumstances brought us here and work opportunities keep us here now. We are very happy, but we’d also be happy wherever we were. Occasionally, when I’m feeling down I blame the place I’m living in, but more often – and with hindsight – I realize that the source of the meloncholy is internal.

Anyway, good on you for following your path to happiness.
