Do you wake up happy? I don’t mean do you jump out of bed singing ‘O Happy Day’. I mean, do you wake up with joy in your heart? Except for maybe not getting enough rest, are you happy to start your day, go to work, come home and be with your family? Are you living in joy?
If not, you are missing out on your life. Because life isn’t truly lived if you are constantly sad, angry, upset or anxious. Your heart and soul have to be in a state of peace, happiness and joy to live life to the fullest. The best thing you can do for yourself is to choose to live in joy.
Choose to Live in Joy! Life goes by in the blink of an eye. It’s too short to live upset, angry, resentful or ungrateful. If you look for the good, you’ll find it. Choose to be happy, to be at peace. Decide that each day is going to be a great day and grab each moment and make the best of it. Refuse to let negative thoughts take root in your mind and refuse to let negative people and situations drag you down. Trust your journey and know that if you make a mistake, it’s okay. See it as a lesson learned and keep moving forward. Spend less time worrying and more time being grateful for those who love you and all of life’s goodness. Choose to live in joy! ~Charity M.

Don’t let anyone try to tell you how to live your life. Choose joy, choose happiness and don’t let the naysayers get you down!
Sending you joyful blessings from Sterrett, Alabama!
