Happiness

There is a quote in a book that I read once that reads: "truly happy women drive some men and almost every other woman absolutely crazy." I find that to be very true. We cannot decide if we love or hate someone who is happy. Some people are drawn to them, some people resent them and some just cling to them hoping that happiness really is contagious. There is nothing I hate more than the Mary Poppins type when I am having a bad day. Personally, I think that people who walk around happy ALL the time are fake. On everyone's life, a little rain must fall. It's ok to admit that you are having a bad day. It's ok to admit that someone has angered you. I feel horrible admitting it but there is a calm satisfaction in knowing that other people are struggling just as much as I am sometimes. We all struggle at times and that is ok. Now, I am not advocating a permanent state of depression either. That's the opposite end of the spectrum. People who are always down in the dumps, always complain, and are forever the victim...that's another post.
People should allow themselves to feel whatever it is that they are feeling. You don't have to put up a front for the rest of the world as though everything is coming up roses when it's actually not. I believe that happiness is a choice, and that positive thoughts bring forth positive results, but at the same time, when it's not genuine people can see right through it.
Be real!
