Happiness is Free!

Happiness is a choice. You wake up each and every day with a decision to make. Before you step foot out of your bed, before you roll over, before you check your social media ; You get to decide. How will I spend today? Will I choose to be happy ?

Some days are harder than others. I get it. When every little thing seems to be the end of the world and you just feel like all odds are against you… Trust me, I know–I have those days too. We all do! It’s what makes us human. While It’s not always easy to see the good in life, I believe that any day above ground is a great day!

Think about it. God isn’t finished with you yet. He breathed life into you the very day you were born, and here you are how many years later? You’ve come this far! Phillipians 4:6 says, “Do not worry about anything, instead pray about everything.” For some reasons, that is my favorite verses. When we look upto God for help, and reassurance, He never fails us.

So I am going to challenge YOU!! When you have a hard day and everything seems to be going wrong–think of least ONE thing in your life that makes you happy. Read your book , take a coffee break, go for a walk, anything… Take some time to really assess your situation, and most importantly be grateful.

Yes of course, being sad is always acceptable. Hell, crying can sometimes help more than anything. I just really want us all to practice gratitude, and enjoying the little things in life. Step back from the big picture, and appreciate each and every piece of the puzzle.

And above all, DON’T WORRY. BE HAPPY!
