HAPPINESS IS A CHOICE

To attain happiness we must breathe joy and happiness.

If that sounds rather simple its's because it is. Life is as complicated as we make it. Every day we are given choices - what shoes to buy, where to send our kids to school , how to react to certain situations... Those choices dictate our happiness. Walk into a new reality and make happiness a choice.

Move forward in life. Yours is a path of light and by living life in harmony with your soul you inspire positive change. Take the time to enjoy a sunrise, the twinkling stars at night, the aroma of a flower or the smile of a child. Appreciate that which you already have and you change your world forever. Be the miracle you are.

Love from the inside out and you elevate the soul to a heavenly place of peace and beauty. A blissful life is yours when you connect to the spirit. Make happiness a choice and seeds of good fortune will come your way. Love and joy flow into your life when you seek to make positive change. To build a better life with must begin with love.

Bring forth the beauty within that the world may see the magnificence of who you are. You are a radiant spirit and yours is a light that connects with higher wisdom and spirit. Be an emissary of divine light by sharing your many gifts. Let loves pure light guide you to transform your thoughts and inspire your actions. Happiness resides in a place of positive belief and purpose.

Love is your essence and by nurturing that part of your being you awaken more fully to life. Awaken the heart, activate your souls gifts and journey to a place deep within where bliss is waiting for you. Trust your spirit and create profound possibilities by seeking out the sweetness of the world.

Happiness is a choice. Loving acceptance of yourself will make that choice easier. Live an inspired life and create a nurturing environment where you celebrate your passions and live your dreams. Let boundless waters of spirit wash over you and nourish your soul with joy.

We choose to be angry, we choose to be upset, we choose to be worried, we  choose to be scared.

Happiness is a choice. I choose HAPPINESS!

Who amongst you will join me!

Yours in Spiritual Harmony

Very beautiful writing, thank you. And I compleltely agree with you, happiness is a choice. We really should enjoy the small and simple things, for it is those simple things that make up our complicated world.
I think more people should see the world as those with open minds and eyes do, unfortunatly, more often then not, people focus more on the negativity and the complexity of the world.
As well, people who focus on the negative live within that negativity, and often pull others in as well.
Love and compassion rule a lot of us, and we must teach it to others, and though I myself am still learning to live in happiness's light, for darkness has ruled me for many years. I am glad to say that I choose happiness and hope to inspire others to as well.
thank you for writing. Blessed be.

I agree...happiness is a chioce, oftentimes difficult to keep in balance with the outer world.

In seeking happiness, and once found, the soul cleanses the body and restores balance within oneself.

this is so true...too many people forget this line.."Take the time to enjoy a sunrise, the twinkling stars at night" I find myself enjoying the simple things like this in my life everyday..

...Only we can choose our own Happiness!

[nancy.sedky]

this is a special piece of work...i agree with you.happiness is a choice but sometimes i(will speak for myself) long for outter happiness for that comes from beloved ones and high expectations,sure it can turn out to disappointment 'cause in that case you are not in control,but sometimes you wait for a tender word at the end of the day,or for some one to say it's not your mistake and when this doesn't happen i'm in deep pain!!!....how to not seek more of others??
anyway...i love your style

I like this.

Though let my Italian blood speak swiftly:

It is important to feel sensations other than happiness...

Sometimes, it is important to be devoid of the perceived choice or opportunity to be 'happy'. Sometimes, it is crucial to the soul, to reach a depth of a place which may be a little bit dark and/or confronting than what is usually experienced.

Do not discount negative sensations. Those feelings help us to identify and appreciate our regular frameworks more intently.

It is human nature to be occasionaly stimulated/propelled into action or change by adversity. I understand that you are saying the overall attitude is to be grateful and aware of one's blessings, but there is also that higher calling which defeats the constraints of one's environment which sometimes is hard to pull away from (without feeling unhappy, unsettled etc.).

Do you see what I mean?

The focus today in soceity is to 'be happy', 'appear happy (facebook)' and so on. I say just be! Though Michael, I love your positive energy and delicate nature =)

I always believe that our life's going depends on the choices we make and the same thing goes with happiness. It depends upon you if you want to sulk, cry, regret and be lonely or move on with your life, learn and be happy. I always think that life is truly unfair and DIFFICULT but hey..we are born to live so better make the best out of it. :) Great writing. Very inspiring.

A story? More to me a confirmation of life's focus. After all, adversity is mandatory, misery is optional. Well said!

[WriterWannabe]

This is excellent advice I'm still in dire need of retaining. :) Thanks for sharing!

[cassandra violet]

I completely and utterly agree, Happiness is a choice, a frame of mind.

Thank you for inspiring us to delve into happiness rather than randomly searching out outside of us.
