Be

IF YOU WANT TO BE HAPPY, BE
Leo Tolstoy, author of War and Peace

Could he have said it any better? I think not. Happiness is a choice. Shit happens- and it happens for a reason. but you have to suck it up and deal with it. As I tell my kids, you have TWO choices... deal with it with tears and screams, or deal with it with a smile. You have to deal with it anyway.

Glass half full or half empty? Whatever. Just drink whatever's left and fill it up again.

You got paid crap? Yay you, you got paid!
You have a crappy job? Yay you, you have a job!
You have a messy room? Yay you, there are kids in Africa who don't even have a house.
You have to wake up early the next day? So? Yay you! You're gonna wake up!
You have no plans? Yay you! You have a t.v. - watch it.

I guess today I have no point. I'm just happy and I wanna spread the joy like warm peanutbutter on toast.

So be. BE HAPPY.
