...Happy Feelings!

"True Happiness is often right at your finger tips. It's up to you to grab hold of it"  Have you ever been so happy, told others, and then someone, just anyone, can find one reason to try to deflate that happy feeling? Well, it is up to us to not let that happen. Every moment we are alive is a blessing. Sure there are always things that will try to detour us from feeling blessed like that sudden flat tire on your car ( Thank God we don't have to ride the bus or walk). That unexpected bill that came in the mail today ( wasn't that you who purchased a new outfit or shoes on a credit card last month? It looks really nice on you too, by the way:), or even the early morning meeting you have tomorrow with your supervisor at work ( what a blessing it is to have a JOB, right?).  There are so many distractions in life that can make us think that things are not going our way.  But in all actuality, it is the little things that mean the most. When I started focusing on the positives in my life, it helped to minimize or even eliminate the negatives. Oh yes, the negatives still exist, but I don't let it swallow up the good that lies before me. True Happiness can be found right in front of our eyes in our families, friends, careers, hobbies, and just looking at all the beautiful things around us that we take for granted.  So, stick out your hands, look at your fingers, wiggle them, and the next time something that makes you smile and THANKFUL is there, just grab hold of it.  It is right there for you---at your fingertips.
