[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1548614, member: 27490"] Happiness is a choice with a significant exception. Clinical maladies of the mind certainly exist that totally or partially preclude happiness. I see people who make a choice to be unhappy. Instead of looking at the positive, they focus on the negative. They obsess on the flaws in society and let it rule their life. Life is a miracle. That we exist - is a miracle. Someone did a straw calculation of the probability that they came to be. There are millions of spermatozoa that could have fertilized the egg we came from. Had it been any other one than the one that made us, we would never have existed. I learned a long time ago not to obsess on all the flaws in society, the flaws in humans, and the natural events that we do not control. Like docility is inherited in cattle, I think inheritance plays a role in our personality. My mom was a very positive, happy person. She laughed at the good, the bad and the ugly. We had a saying in the family - mom would laugh if she was all dressed up and slipped and fell in a mud puddle. She would get up laughing. And she would laugh even harder if dad slipped and fell.
