And the little tree looked up at the giant shade tree and said: "I know I can."I’ve often had people ask me – “How come you are so happy?”
My response: Happiness is a choice.
Have you ever met someone who was constantly blaming outside sources for their life?
Here are some examples –
I hate my job
If the weather was nicer I’d be happier
I don’t have time to do anything I want to
I’m not talented
I can’t get out and exercise
Buddha said: “With our thoughts we make our world.”
And if our thoughts are filled with I can’t, I won’t, I don’t and other negative feelings – our lives will be filled with those types of actions as well.
Let’s visit the optimistic/happy side of the brain shall we?
I make a difference at work
I’ve got an umbrella – let’s walk in the rain
I can do that!
I love to learn and try new things
Lets meet at noon everyday and walk
happiness is a choice and we can choose it at any moment.
Where will your thoughts and actions take you today?
