Choose Happiness. . .

A few weeks ago as I read “I Am That Girl” by Alexis Jones, I came across a line that tugged at my heart strings and spoke to my soul. In the short span of time it took to read this line, I resolved to make this idea, this profound truth a way of life. No longer do I wish to be found guilty of living my life in such a way that my happiness or gratitude be contingent on some moment in the future. For how much of life do we miss by waiting to see the rainbow before thanking God that there is rain?

“Part of dreaming is being content where you are at in this precise moment, choosing happiness now instead of your happy being contingent on ‘when all your dreams come true.”
