Hi! I'm happy because I'm happy 'with me' inside. Even when I'm cranky because things aren't going right --- I'm happy, because I'm happy inside. I'm happy sometimes just to spite the folks / circumstances that strive to make me unhappy.
I wake every morning with a song in my heart and good will.
My husband used to have 'black moods' when nothing suited him, he was unhappy with the world and just unpleasant to be around --- don't be like that.
Don't let anyone steal your happy.
Living without it would just be existing.
