So True...

Happiness

Every now and again, someone will ask me why I'm always so happy. Sometimes I feel like it's hard to answer that question. Not because it's hard to answer, but because they can't seem to grasp the concept. People try to make everything harder than it is. I saw this lovely little chart today, and for any of you who have ever asked me that question, here is your answer! If I'm happy, I go with it. If I'm not happy, I decide if I really want to be miserable. Of course the answer is no, so the only thing to do at that point is figure out what's making me unhappy, and to fix it. There are a lot of things you can fix, then there are other things you have no control over. Here is where one of my very favorite quotes comes into play!

There are a lot of things we have not control over, but why let that get in the way of your happiness!? It doesn't matter what situation you find yourself in, you can always make that choice to be happy. I'm not saying it's easy, I'm just saying its worth it.
