Happiness? What is it? The dictionary writes, “state of being happy,” but what does that really mean? And how do people decide to be happy?

People do not choose what happens in their life, but they can choose how they go about it.

Life is a roller coaster; always has its ups and downs, may even feel upside down, but it will eventually end. Each day when you wake up, YOU have the choice to be someone who smiles.

Here are 10 quotes that will help you to remember that the glass is always half full and not half empty-

1.“One small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day.”

2.“Good days and bad days are a part of life. Stay positive and you’ll always be happy.”

3.“Look for something positive in each day. Even if some days you have to look a little harder. Let the challenges make you strong.”

4.“Be somebody that makes everybody feel like a somebody.”

5.“Keep your head high, your chin up, and most importantly keep smiling, because life’s beautiful and there’s so much to smile about.” (Of course, from the wise Marilyn Monroe.)

6.“Be the reason someone says, because of you I did not give up.”

7.“Smiling never goes out of fashion.”

8.“No one has ever seen a smiling face that is not beautiful.”

And of course Lukas graham and his lyrics,

9.“I only see my goals, I don’t believe in failure, cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major.”

Smiling is key to getting through each day. Life is much too short to be anything, but happy. Whenever you are feeling down, remember,

10. “Your smile can change the world, but do not let the world change your smile.”
