I was the 3rd one who hit the "10" button.....but only because I'm thoroughly happy AND content. Life is full of choices, and over the years I've made the choice to always look on the bright side of things, even if the situations or circumstances are anything but sunny and bright. My happiness and contentment aren't based on 'things' or 'people' or any other external causes. It's based solely on a deep-seated inner peace, that isn't shaken by outward forces or circumstances.
“There is only one way to happiness, and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.” ~ Epicetus ~
And this quote from our old friend, CFB:
"To be truly happy, one must live absolutely in the present, with no thought of what's gone before, and no thought of what lies ahead."
