I say these three simple words to people and they seem to do a mental shutdown. It's like they look at the issues in their life and wonder how any of it could possibly equate to happiness. They build walls around themselves then wonder why nobody is visiting. They sink into a pit of despair and look for someone to pull them out, or join them. I think some folks just don't want to believe happiness can be as easy as admitting they are already there; happiness already exists for them, and they are the only barrier. It's as if they feel their life's ills absolutely must be someone else's fault, or someone else's responsibility, and they don't want to admit their only way out is through accepting ownership of their own life and the happiness that already exists for them.
