[QUOTE="muttmeister, post: 450830, member: 135"] It was Abraham Lincoln who said, "Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be." I've always thought that was pretty true. I'm a pretty happy person most of the time. Certainly I've had my ups and downs but no matter how bad things are, I can always find somebody worse off and realize how lucky I am. When my difficult children were little, I was under a lot of stress and, although I tried to look on the bright side, there was a period when I don't think I was actually "joyful." The few times I got away and experienced that joy made me realize what I was missing but now that they are grown and I am retired, I have far less stress in my life and can enjoy it even more.
