Veteran actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo a.k.a RMD took to Instagram to dish on the true source of happiness, and it clearly excludes being rich, having children, or making surgical body enhancements from the list of things that could bring true happiness.
According to the actor, he has been there and done that, he’s experienced many of what most people aspire to in life and he has now figured out that true happiness is the result of self-love.
He said a woman who is secure in her looks, will never have the need to undergo cosmetic surgery. Referencing his fans to think about a woman like Michelle Obama, RMD stated that plastic surgery can never make one happy as most of the things we do to show others we are beautiful, made, tough and/or connected are things that magnify our insecurities.
Having been there and done that, I can tell you for free that weight loss, weight gain, butt enlargement, boob lift, marriage, buying/building your own house, having kids, wearing expensive clothes and shoes CANNOT make you truly happy.
Mostly, the things we do to show others we are beautiful, made, tough and/or connected are things that magnify our insecurities.
A man who is secure in himself has no urge to flaunt wealth, I’m yet to see Alh. Dangote post a picture of his “machines” or of him “chilling in his private jet”.
A woman who is secure in her looks has no urge to go under the knife for enhancement, think Michelle Obama.
True happiness comes from knowing who you are (self discovery) and loving yourself, “even though…” Anyone who can live without caring about the validation of others is the one who has found true happiness.
