The other day I posted an Instagram story that choosing to be happy is a conscious choice.  I received a message from a person who asked me a simple, yet thought-provoking, question on how I choose to be happy? This got the wheels turning as it is a really great question.

I’ve always been a very bubbly person throughout my life with a very quirky personality.  I was raised to appreciate many different aspects of life.  There is this one phrase I grew up with that my dad instilled in me.

“There’s always someone in life who is going to be richer than you and poorer than you.”

I’ve adapted this over the years to say that there’s always someone in life who’s going to have it better than you and worse than you.  What it means to me is there are always two perspectives in life, and, more importantly, it is completely your choice which way you look at a situation.
