You are soooo right about this, @dawnsheree!!

Choosing positivity doesn’t happen with just a flip of a finger. Of course, negative thoughts will also come creeping in but it’s up to you to allow those bad thoughts to drown you and make the best of you. You will always have a choice and dwelling with such thoughts can affect not just your life but also the people around you.

I have grown to be rather pessimistic but still I strive to dwell on the positive stuffs. I would tell myself to deliberately find them, because I'm spreading a different aura to those around me as well. Happiness is indeed a choice, it is an attitude, whether in good times or trying times.
