Are you really happy?

2. Happy as you are

Happy people are thankful for their peculiarities. They love themselves and wouldn’t want to be anyone else. They have a deep appreciation for their uniqueness and experiences, and are grateful for how their mind works. Their likes, dislikes, and even shortcomings are something they are thankful for. They also understand the value of bettering themselves and work towards self-improvement. Nobody is perfect, but you should always strive to be better and to have more meaningful encounters with people. In reality, no one can be happy 24/7. The key is to not let circumstances and other people get you down for more that a moment.  It’s fine to have an unhappy moment, but don’t let that lead into unhappy weeks or months. Take time to count your blessings.  Your situation may not be ideal right now, but you can still choose to be happy.
