STAY HAPPY

There's this definition of happiness I came across which I love so much, it goes this way:  

Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being characterized by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.

 Staying happy is a choice we need to CONSCIOUSLY make at all times. Your decision to stay happy affects you much more than you think. You are the cause of your happiness: The only person who can make you Happy or Unhappy in this world is YOU. You alone have the ability to create happiness for yourself.

For every minute you are angry or unhappy, you lose sixty seconds of happiness. True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient - Contentment. A wise man is content with his lot, whatever it may be, without wishing for what he does not have. The happiest people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have. 

Being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect. It means that you’ve decided to look beyond the imperfections. Look beyond what you don’t have, focus on the much you have and be grateful that you have them. 

You might not have those shoes but you have feet that can wear shoes tomorrow; You might not own that dream car yet but you have the sound mind to even differentiate between cars; You might not be where you want to be yet but you DEFINITELY are not where you used to be.

“Optimism is a happiness magnet. If you stay positive, good things and good people will be drawn to you.” Mary Lou Retton

 So my dear friends, Stay Happy!! No matter what comes your way, You deserve to be happy.
