Happy

It pays to wake up happy
It pays to try to be happy
It pays to try and think positive thoughts and let the negitive thoughts fall away like water rolling off a ducks back.
God wants us to be happy, love, and live life to the fullest that he offers us, because that is what he wants for us.
The Devil wants us to dwell in self pity and the negative, making feelings of anger, hate and frustration, because that is his goal for us.
I have been practising, when negativity rolls around, I try to think of something that makes me happy, or has made me happy, like holding each of my babies for the first time. Or some of the interesting hikes we took when we first met.
It changes my bad thoughts to good thoughts and then my whole outlook is better, and even the kids appear to be getting along better when I am happier.
Joy is the Goal!
