You can’t hide happiness…no matter how hard you may try. When you think about good things and positive experiences your mood shifts into a positive one. The same goes for negative thoughts and negative experiences, so don’t go there.

Some people find themselves in situations that don’t make them happy. In fact you can be a happy person for the most part, but the people you are around may be negative and really give you a hard time for being positive. Negative people often find positive people annoying and let you know it.

What are you supposed to do if that negative person is your spouse, significant other or best friend? Encourage them to let go of their negative slant on life. We all have reasons to be upset with something. An illness, a life experience that has altered a relationship, becoming a caregiver when you feel that you have no choice in the matter, are a few of those reasons. There are too many examples to list.

Here’s the message to remember today; we all could find a reason to be unhappy if we looked for it. Don’t bother. It will not get you where you need to go. You need to find some positive people to be with and you have to think happy thoughts on purpose. It will make a difference for you. Be the light that shines today. You will never know how many people you help. “Now let’s get going!” xo Sally
