I’ve been thinking recently about how happiness is sometimes viewed as a special choice or gift and that unhappiness is seen as a default of sorts. That if we don’t have this special ability to be happy, that we can’t.
I don’t think that’s true, and knowing that it’s not can be uncomfortable.
We choose to wake up and see the bad or we choose to wake up and see the good.
We choose to complain about set backs or we choose to find solutions.
We choose to hold the power of our lives or we choose to hand it away.
The choice for happiness isn’t something special or extra that we need to add in to our lives, it is actually a very boring, mundane part of it that happens hundreds of times each and every day.
Happiness and unhappiness is less about making a huge, special choice and more about changing the little ones that we are already committing to each day.
Our default will simply become the one that we choose the most.
So…since I am already choosing, I might as well choose to enjoy my life.
