Mariana: Very good article, and also great choice of the opening image! I wish I had more time to do some of the tips.
Baibeehgurl: i love it!!! good article!
suburbangrandma: Excellent points!!! If only more people would practice it....this would be a wonderful world!! Everyone should print it out and post it on the fridge, by your computer, and pass it along to someone you really care about. I have my copy to take to work!!! Great job. Thank you.
INDIRA: OMG! why did i get so emotional while reading this post? I guess it has alot of what i needed to hear...I'm usually very happy, the kind of chick who laughs and smiles alot...but lately that hasn't been quite the story...I've been sort of unhappy...and you are absolutely right, you are in control of your happiness, just as much as your in control of the choices you make in life...that being said, you have a choice to be happy, sad, or mad...although choosing how you feel is not always easy, this post makes it alot easier, sort of like a guideline for happiness. I was so upset today about what one of my good friends said about me...and then i read this article and i almost teared, because everything it said was true...you honestly made my day, you have no idea...thank you so much, bless your kind heart...indira
gitanjali: Nice very usful to all.
shina: be happy always
