You Can Be Happy

“Happy lives in your head”

That’s what I tell my grandchildren when they are having a “moment”.

Happy does, indeed, live in your head. You choose. As someone who has personally experienced a period of deep depression, I can say there is a way up and out. Your battle may be different than mine. I don’t want to minimize the level of your pain, but YOU CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. You can find a way to be happy.

One thing that can be helpful is to make a list of the blessings in your life. When you are hit with a wave of unhappiness or pain, respond by thanking God for everything on your list. One by one.

Ultimately, the only lasting solution I know is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Everything else is little more than Novocaine to numb your pain.

With Christ, you can find happiness.
