It is difficult to find happiness within oneself, but it is impossible to find it anywhere else. 2.0 version of this quote is, happiness is an inside job. And it's interesting because our culture teaches us to look for happiness outside, oh, if I had that handbag, I'd be happy if I had this car, if I had this degree if I had this or that, I'd be happy. It's not like that. You have to be happy with what you do have, and also know that every time you have a desire, as George Bernard Shaw said, you're going to be unsatisfied. You know, you're either going to get it and be unsatisfied, and it'll be replaced by another desire or you're not going to get it and be unsatisfied.
So that you know, this is why I teach the second noble truth of Buddhism, that that all suffering is the result of desire so that people learn to have what they want and want what they have
