Don't worry, be happy.

How hard is it to be a nice person, really? Being nice comes from being happy and being happy comes naturally... If being angry is what feels natural, it may just be a matter of changing your attitude.

I really don't understand the origin of some people's rudeness and brutality. To an extent, it's your choice as to whether or not you want to be in a happy, sad, angry, whatever mood. The key to it all: finding the silver lining.

Yes, other people can be mean. Yes, bad things happen. Yes, when it rains it sometimes storms. But what's the point in letting it get to you? There is no point! Do you see my point?

No matter what you're going through in your day, there is always something to smile about (as cheesy as that sounds) - you've got your health, a roof over your head, food in your cupboard, someone to love... You always have something, anything. Often, there are people in far worse situations than you, who don't complain. Why? Because they find a way to be happy, and it’s really not hard.

As I said, it's about attitude. If you're going to always look at the negative things in life, you’re going to have crappy days throughout it. It's simple mathematics:

Good attitude = Good day
Shitty attitude = Shitty day

Remember the good stuff, eliminate and forget the rest, and move on. The minutes go by whether you enjoy them or not; and don't you think you're better off enjoying them? It's your choice.
