I stumbled across a quote recently from Bob Dylan's memoir.  Speaking about his wife, he said, The one thing about her that I always loved was that she was never one of those people who thinks that someone else is the answer to their happiness. Me or anybody else." This truly resonates with me.  I firmly believe that we often spend too much time looking to (or for) others to make us happy.  I am doing my best to focus on all the happiness I have within myself -- and there is a great deal -- the rest will follow.  The only person who can make YOU happy is YOU.
