Happiness is...
"Happiness is not a destination. It is a method of life." -- Burton Hills
I ask the question, what is happiness really? Do YOU know? If you could define it in technical terms, how would you describe it?
The answer is simply this. It just is...
Because happiness can mean so many different things to so many different people one cannot say that happiness is one particular thing and/or event; that would be an injustice. Happiness can be a mood, an emotion, a feeling, an experience, a sense of being, etc...
I guess the mere fact that we have lived thusfar to talk about it and have personally experienced it in one time or another in our lifetime is but an example of how powerful "happiness" can be.
Yet, with such a feeling, we still prey victim, at times, to allowing others to kill our inspiration, minimize our accomplishments, ridicule our shortcomings and massacre our dreams. But why? Whatever the reason, it's time to stop the madness and take the control back in your life.
Remove yourself from nay-sayers and negativity; shift your mindset and associate with other like-minded positive individuals; take action and be responsible for your actions, your destiny and your day to day activities. Allow your actions, your emotions and your future to be your choice versus someone elses.
The reality is... you are in control of your happiness and even when things are looking down, you have a choice to determine your outcome, your circumstance and/or your outlook to a brighter more prosperous tomorrow.
