Happiness

It is amazing how many people think happiness is something they buy or will happen TO them. They fail to see how happiness is a state of being, a choice. In spite of life’s bumps, those who make a choice to be happy are able to handle these bumps with a better viewpoint and make choices based on building stability and happiness. That’s right, happiness is a CHOICE. It is an action, a decision to be happy.

Unless you live in a bubble, you will have ups and downs in life. Choosing to be happy enables you to enjoy life in spite of the downturns that come along. It is not a case of walking around in an oblivious state, but a decision that no matter what comes along, you take a deep breath and look for the good. Once you find it, leverage off of it to turn the rest into something positive.

Make a decision to choose happiness today. In spite of whatever you are facing, whatever you are feeling, look for the good. You will likely be surprised by how much good there is in your life.
