Don't Worry. Choose Happy!

“Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.” — Abraham Lincoln

Old honest Abe got it right. Do find yourself worrying about whether or not you are making this person happy or that person happy as if it was your duty to make others happy? Well here is some good new! Give it a rest. You do not even have the ability to make other people happy. Happiness is a choice and you and others have to choose to be happy in the midst of what is happening. The Bible calls it joy. A peace that cannot be understood because others base happiness on what is happening, while wise people realize joy is a choice in the midst of what is happening. So take the advice of honest Abe and don't worry, choose happy!
