Everything is OK always, depending on how you perceive it, no matter what life throws your way. Happiness is always available if we decide to embrace it.

I spent most of my life taking cues from the outside world and knew that my heart wanted something more. The last two years I consciously chose happiness. Life I as know it has somersaulted into a spectacular journey. I choose to see love and joy! Lilli-Sarah You must be the change you wish to see in the world. – Gandhi

Much better to see that on a shirt than some of the things that are on them these days! I really do believe that you have to choose happiness. And it can be very easy to get discouraged. I am a young Mom, im 24 and I have a three year old and a six month old child. I was very discouraged when I got pregnant for both my children. People seen it in my town as something that was odd...and even more odd that a twenty some odd old mother would use cloth diapers and all natural products on her children. SO many times I have been put down or discouraged...and you just CANT let it get to you. I applaud these tshirts. Everyone should have like 100 of them! THey are a wonderful idea... cuz there are enough men and women who are feeling down who will walk by someone with one of these on...and it could change there life!

I totally believe you can change your mindset. I get in such a slump sometimes, but have found I can turn it around if I mindfully decide to just be happy instead! There are so many blessings around to help with that. Oh, I would LOVE this shirt! I totally believe you can change your mindset.

I truly do believe you can choose to be happy! We all have some very sad times in our lives, but if we dwell on all the negatives and do not emphasize the positives we arent teaching our children to live happily are we? I recently had a miscarriage, and anyone who has had one knows you cant possibly be prepared to deal with all the emotions and hormonal changes suddenly going on. I had some really rough days, but I made myself play with my children and see their happiness and let it help heal my broken heart. They can teach us grown ups too!

If you want to be happy, and woudl like to see the world become a better place, you need to effect change from yourself. Nobody can make you happy unless you want it!

But I do believe that with a little effort and hard work, we can all choose happiness, at least some of the time.

I think if you think positively it will make a difference. I find that if I am in a bad mood already things just seem to get worse. That isn't to say I don't think we should be prepared, but stewing on something will only make it worse. Jessica I love this post. I think if you think positively it will make a difference.

But having an optimistic attitude definitely helps you to be a happier person! I am trying to be better at it all the time.

But that's not to discount life experiences that are bound to get you down for a temporary period-- of course you can't "choose happiness" on the day that someone you love dies, or you find out you have cancer, or whatever. But you do reach a point where you can continue to be in a rut about it or to choose to fight for your own happiness. Neat t-shirt. :) A choice, definitely.
