***Here are a few words of wisdom: 

Our Constitution guarantees us the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of 

happiness. Notice that it doesn't guarantee us happiness,., it just

guarantees our right to pursue it. Why?  Because no one is responsible for

our happiness but ourselves. And how do we take responsibility? By the

choices we make.

For example: Do we choose a positive attitude? DO we choose to be kind

human beings? Do we choose to be fair, to work toward our goals? The 

choices we make can either lead us toward happiness or lead us toward

unhappiness.

Abraham Lincoln once said:

                Most people are about as happy as they make up their 

                minds to be.

So today, take responsibility for your own happiness.

With something to think about, Make it a great day . . or not.

The choice is yours.
