Choose to smile

The difference between a garden and a graveyard is what you put in the ground. You have to choose on your own to be happy or sad. You have to chose the path you want to take, and you can either sit there and look at the bad things or look for the good. I chose to smile. A lot of people are asking themselves what they can do to be happy. You have to make your own happiness. Happy, beautiful, people. That’s all we are meant to be in this world and it doesn’t matter what you have and haven’t achieved because you were made on this earth to be happy, and believe it or not you have put a smile on someone’s face. No, we can not expect to be happy in the snap of fingers, it just doesn’t work that way. We have to try, we can’t mope around and say we will never be happy, but with that attitude you will be heading in the wrong direction. We have to try because life gets in the way sometimes, and we have to be strong and fight it with our heart. If you hang around friends that are going to pull you down, how do you expect to live your life happy? If your in a place surrounded by people who constantly tell you what you can’t become, how are you going to do it? Even if your senses tell you that you are depressed you should convince yourself that you are well and loved because that’s the only truth you can get from your mind at that moment. I’m not going to lie, you will come across many bumps in your life. But god gave you legs, so step over the bumps. I’ve been really happy lately because I chose to smile, because even if something got in my way to make me sad, I look at every reason why I shouldn’t be unhappy. Life is way too short to sit around and cry. I look at everything upside down, I look at them differently for my reason to smile. Choose to be happy, and always smile, if you can’t smile anyway I promise you will feel so much better and people will see you so much better. Smiling makes you beautiful. What you think and what you believe is something that will come true for you. Your thoughts create your life, whether it’s negative or positive, you decide. It’s twisted but while you are thinking someone is there making you happy or sad, they really aren’t controlling it. It is all you, they are just giving you a little push. Your personality will create your reality. So if you are positive, you will live your life happy. So take time out of your day to laugh because why not? It will help keep you in balance, and I believe smiling is completely appropriate. I’ve realized that joy is what helps me get through the tough times, it makes me feel so much better. So, laugh a little. It won’t hurt. I choose to be happy.
