" Sometimes, we just have to be happy with what people can offer us. Even if it's not what we want. "

Expectation is the root cause of suffering. Sometimes you need to accept the situation as it is without trying to change it. If you can find happiness in the reality of life, you would love the world as it is.

Sometimes you must learn to be happy from what other people can give you without expecting much from them. You can not always get what you want.

Don't give control of your happiness to others.
