Indeed, "Blame it on the daaaaaaaabs" in my best Milli Vinilli voice lol
I just know that life is finite and we are the masters of our state of being, no one else. I CHOOSE to be happy, all the time no matter what. If I feel unhappy I simply change the way I am thinking therefore the way I feel changes. Here is an example, I lost my dad two years ago. I cried sure, I was upset and sad but when I found myself having prolonged bouts of sadness or in a "funk" I would simply stop and say to myself " I don't want to feel this way" immediately followed by thoughts of why I am happy about and things that I am greatful I have in my life. Sure enough each and every time I stop feeling bad and start feeling better, if those thoughts try to creep in I become cognizant of them and squash them like a fungus gnat under my thumb. We are the only people that can affect the way we feel(except when it comes to feelings for another person IE love) no one else, so with that knowledge I know I can either choose happiness or sadness, and lets face it being sad or angry or upset in any capacity is not very much fun, I like fun things.
