Good question. My life did not go the way that I dreamed of--that's the problem. Situations were forced upon me, and I made some bad choices (like the man I married) LOL. YES, now is the time for change!!! On my 50th birthday, I vowed to myself that it was time to get busy for real, no matter what, and trust the Lord to guide me in improving my life in all areas. It's working!!!

I read this somewhere - 'happiness is serendipity, be overjoyed if you have found contentment'. The secret to measuring happiness is to learn to count your blessings. You are alive and in good health, you are not in debt or homeless, please praise the almighty God. Look at those so called bad choices as experiences that have contributed to making you the beautiful person you are

I'm not where I used to be, I'm not where I want to be but I'm getting there and with that won't complain.

So true!!! Thank you.

Happy... I have happy days and I have not so happy days. But for the most part I am blessed and that makes me happy. When I wake up every morning and thank my heavenly father, and my husband, children, grandchildren and brothers,sister all wake up to see another day that makes me happy. Times are rough right now but having a roof over my head, a close family, a nice home, a nice car. Food to eat and a book that selling pretty good. I can say that I am happy. Being blessed is being happy for me. Thank you Jesus
