No matter how much negativity is thrown at YOU by others, there is absolutely no need for you to stay put and partake in the decay they choose for their own lives. YOU decide how your soul grows.

The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.

Be positive. Some of the best days of your life haven’t happened yet.

If you're looking for a happy ending and can't seem to find one, maybe it's time you start looking for a new beginning instead.

And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow.

You don’t need anyone’s permission to be happy.

Sometimes we get so caught up in trying to accomplish something big, that we fail to notice the little things that give life its magic.

More important than what happens to you is what you make of what happens to you.

You must uncover the good in the bad, the happy in your sad, the gain in your pain, and what makes you grateful not hateful.

The only way to live happily ever after is one day at a time.

Happiness is something that comes into our lives gradually through the doors that we don’t even remember leaving open.

Just because it was that way yesterday, doesn’t mean it has to be that way today.

To be happy doesn't mean you don't desire more, it means you're thankful for what you have and patient for what's yet to come.

Simply feeling what we are feeling, and dealing with it, can be very healing.

Positive thinking isn't about expecting the best to happen every time but, accepting that whatever happens is the best for this moment.

Enjoy yourself. These are the good old days you're going to miss in the years ahead.

If you want to be happy, don’t chase the money. Catch up to the ideas and activities that make you come alive. Go for the things of greater value – the things money can’t buy.
