pretty strung out at this point.

Happiness is a choice.

Nobody's making you feel these things.
I mean, what do you think that happens
when you get frustrated with somebody else?
Did they come up to you and inject you with frustration,
with the chemicals of frustration?
Did they create the electrical signals of frustration,
the pressure waves, the sound waves?
No. You did that.
You created that inside yourself in response to their poor behavior.
So, if you can accept that you're doing it -
it's not them, it's you -
that simple truth takes you from what we call the victim position,
and it crosses the threshold to ownership.
That's the most important transition you'll ever make in your life.

If you want to be happy, be happy. If you don't want to be happy, don't be happy.

Your life situation isn't always going to be good, but how you react to them is within your control.

I also think that putting unhappy days and events into perspective will also lead to more happiness.

You and I are arriving at the same place, and I don't think you realize it.
