Don’t go there -don’t say you don’t know what happiness is because happiness is what you make it!  You and you only make yourself miserable or happy.  You (I) let others invade our minds and bodies and overtake our thoughts and destroy our self-esteem image on the most important day of the year, TODAY.  Thanksgiving Day is not only the 3rd Thursday of November, it is every day of every week, each month, each year in every country, globally.  And, if it’s not, it should be!  We should be thankful for what we have and the ability to make life better.

If you are ready know that individuals less fortunate then you have found their inner strength to survive and make this world more peaceful and a happier and brighter spot for others.  Some people volunteer their time helping the less fortunate; others donate money or used goods.  In history we have witnessed people climb their way out of the ashes of doom and gloom to achievement, identifying success in their terms and not the societal or media cliché’.

Isn’t it time we stopped believing in the Hallmark™ movies and the depictions of the perfect ageless lucky person, and Choose 2 B Happy?  I have allowed myself to have 1, 2 many pity parties in my life where I was the only one who attended.  I must share with you; a single pity party is meaningless.  But when I Choose 2 B Happy, others join me, and I chose others.  The people I chose may not have been the people I thought I wanted as friends (or extended family), I was the snob wanting the perfection that I felt I needed and was isolating myself.  However, when I realized there is no such thing as perfection and my Hallmark™ movie is what I create I Chose 2 B Happy, changing my life for the better.

Life is not perfect!  I still have my down moment!#!#!@!  I know my OCD kicks in when I can’t help others who are hurting, especially those that I love and care so deeply.  Try as hard as I do to give them the space they need to resolve their life issues; I become the protector, the momma bear, the partner, the friend, and sometimes the enemy!  The so-called perfect moments in life can turn to shit in seconds, and it feels like the earth beneath your feet is quivering, and quacking and the world is about to end, maybe you should just put it to an end.  But STOP!

Take a moment go back and read a text you just sent.  Does it say what you meant?  Is the tone correct?  Are words spelled correctly and will the reader understand it without default?  How many times will you need to re-explain what you just texted the other person comprehends your meaning?

What happened to the day when we sat across from each other shared a conversation and spoke in words and redefined through redirection what was being said to confirm we were understanding and trusting the message received?  I Choose 2 B Happy, I Choose 2 B with People, I Choose 2 Communicate, what are your choices?

And by the way, I am not perfect!  I am not a Hallmark™ movie.
