Yes, I'm Happy...

There is a lot to be said about being happy. I guess, after all the hell I went through as a kid and early adult, it's a fantastic feeling. Happiness is a result of being content and being yourself. Be true to who you are and then living that out.

People laugh at me and they stare at times. You look in the mirror and say even to yourself that you aren't what you want to be. Youhave bills and setbacks and disappointments, etc. Yet, despite all of the normal struggles, you find happiness there too.

Happiness remains when it turns into joy. When happiness is more than just a laugh and a smile it travels to the heart where it can flourish. The contentment and peace is so strong that the conversion to joy takes place. Then the smile becomes permanent and the laugh becomes a infectious.

So find happiness and maintain it with great family and people whom you love. Laugh at things and even at yourself sometimes. Never take you or others too seriously. Above all else, be the real you and resist the nay-sayers who find the bad in everything.

Some additional thoughts from Jenny:

Think About it...

Happiness is not dependent upon the circumstances around you for happiness to occur. Happiness is a choice to be happy despite the circumstances that are around you. In spite of the circumstances, you find that you are indeed happy because you chose to be. The circumstances had no bearing at all.
