Why must we be happy?

I don't know how many of you readers feel low and alone but I started feeling alone quite frequently nowadays. The reasons for this pathetic situation of mine are as many as stars.  But just now I listened to a lecture and I felt very connected to it. I would like to share the mistakes I did for finding my happiness hoping that you will not repeat them. If you too feel connected with them, do share with me. I often feel  happy when I have people around me. Basically I am afraid to be alone. But life can't be always as we want and I started feeling alone in my college.

 But I realised today that we must first enjoy our company to enjoy others company. I learnt that if we don't love ourselves why will others love us! And most  importantly I felt I am trying to impress everyone, ending up depressing myself. Also, I realised that the  biggest reason for us to be happy is because we are alive at this moment and the entire universe is with us helping us in our survival, helping us to achieve our dreams, helping us to feel the touch of everything at this moment. What more must we need to be happy!..
