Happiness helps us find love, while love in turn brings us happiness.
The two terms are intertwined.
But before one finds love we also need to have a sense of happiness with ourselves that comes from within.
We cannot continue to seek out love and happiness without first finding the love and happiness within ourselves.
Love and happiness does not come from material items or even other people. It comes from a place of contentment within ourselves.
Finding both happiness and love in the world is in our human nature to achieve.
To help you achieve this here are quotes about happiness and love!
