Happiness most definitely is a choice. Make a choice starting today to be happy. Count five blessings before you give yourself the right to one worry. There are billions of people in worse conditions than you in this world but so often we give into to society and people by letting their fears enter us. When someone talks fear to you, go the other direction.
There are so many people even now in a worldwide recession leading fantastic lives. They have great health, great relationships, great businesses, etc. They lead lives in this way because they are tuned into a different frequency.
What frequency are you tuned into?. Are you watching too much fear lead information like the news. Are you hanging around too may fearful people. Never let someone circumstances or thoughts become your reality. You make the choice today, to be healthy, to be happy, to be wealth. to have great relationships. Everything is under your control. Ultimately it is you that controls your state of being, not outside influences.
