How to remain happy? Count your blessings. F.I., every night I thank the Lord for the fact I have a house of my own and a bed to sleep in. Not much to look at, but it’s mine. And I could easily have been out on the street.
I studied hypnotherapy for a year but never practiced. It is important to be able to move from your “unhappy place” to a “happy place”. By doing so frequently, your brain generates a more moderate synthesis. It is important not to get stuck in a binary state of mind.
Unfortunately,, I understand Amanda all too well. I have a lot to be happy about, but the other list is a lot longer. I have to remind myself to focus on the shorter list. And what is it with people who have to be right by you when they have so many empty places to choose from….church, movie theater, empty parking lot, etc.

Seeing my kids happy. Seeing my wife smile. Long bicycle rides. Watching a Little League ball game. Bacon. …etc…

Shhh, we won’t tell Dan that you didn’t think of him as something that makes you happy. (It’s because Dan’s not a “thing”, right?) ;)

I haven’t heard “Boy Howdy” in a while… thought it was a southern or Texas thing…
Dwelling on things and people to be grateful for is good practice, but takes work…
