So now that we’ve chosen to live a happy life do we go around putting everyone who offends us in their place? Absolutely not. We must be as wise as serpents and harmless as doves. Choosing to be happy is to focus on the ones and things that bring about that wonderful happy feeling and simply ignore the rest. Life is just too short to get sidetracked by those who intentionally try to throw you off track into sadness. Stay away from those people. If you can’t stay away think happy thoughts when they’re around and especially when they start talking.
