Happiness isn't something that happens to you. It is something that you yourself do and determine upon. If you wait for happiness, you are likely to have a long wait. No one can decide what your thoughts will be but yourself. No day or circumstance is 100% 'good' and events justify either a pessimistic and grumpy outlook or a optimistic and happy outlook, depending on our choice. It is largely a matter of selection, attention and decision - a matter of to what we choose to give primary attention and what thoughts we hold in the mind.
"True happiness involves the full use of one's powers and talents." - John W. Gardner
