Cynically Countering a Manifest Meme

Thought Provocation by Jeph Johnson
"You are responsible for your happiness. In fact you create it. You attract it. You manifest it. You choose your thoughts, your perceptions and your reactions to external forces. You possess all of the tools needed to expand your awareness, to orchestrate the evolution of your consciousness, to choose happiness, to choose love. You are that powerful! Create the life you deserve. Vibrate love."
You are responsible for your happiness...
So why focus on anyone else's happiness? Perhaps if there weren't memes out there saying this there'd be more people willing to make others happy.
You create your happiness...
Therefore I'll never be able to please anyone else.
You attract your happiness...
Which makes me feel if indeed it's all my doing, "attracting" something that's already inside me is rather redundant.
You manifest your happiness...
I suppose it's a lot like manifesting a bodily fluid secretion.
You are the architect of your reality...
Building mansions so high in the clouds I can see others' mansions of reality looking so much more cozy.
You choose your thoughts about external forces...
Like thinking about baseball when having sex.
You choose your perceptions of external forces...
Meaning when I see things rationally it's very dangerous!
You choose your reactions to external forces...
Like when I choose to not fall over when hit by a car.
You possess all of the tools needed to expand your awareness to orchestrate the evolution of your consciousness...
Isn't "orchestrating the evolution of my consciousness" pretty much just a fancy way of saying "waking up"? I think I might have misplaced that toolbox, because when you're depressed you sleep a lot!
You possess all of the tools needed to choose happiness...
I can choose happiness all I want, that doesn't mean happiness chooses me back.
You possess all of the tools needed to choose love...
And whenever I've done that, love has not chosen me back.
You are that powerful!...
I sure am. Others don't seem to be.
Create the life you deserve...
I have. Nobody else believes it.
Vibrate love...
Now I understand why ladies are so obsessed with their vibrators. I think they meant to say "vibrator love."
