An old man was asked for his secret of happiness. The man replied, “I haven’t any great secret. It’s just as plain as the nose on your face. When I get up in the morning," he explained, “I have two choices–either to be happy or to be unhappy, and what do you think I do? I just choose to be happy, and that’s all there is to it.”
From ~ The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent
