Thanks for these quotes Lark. The Valerie Bertinelli quote is interesting because as Valerie says it might not be easy to choose happiness during stressful and dark times but maybe that's the time when it most important to be optimistic.
Some good advice there, but I'm not sure that I buy the first one as being anywhere near a universal truth. And then again, maybe I'm just a pessimist tonight.
I thoroughly believe that we are the architects of our own happiness. I look for little things that bring me joy each day, especially on the difficult ones. A good read and connecting with my blogging buddies certainly helps!
Very wise words, Ethan. It is the little things...and what we focus on...that determines how we feel. Being grateful for those little things always makes me happier, too.
Excellent advice! Happy, happy day, Lark!
ReplyDeleteI love that first quote! The realization that I could choose my moods was life-changing for me. I didn't have to let a negative moment ruin my day.

ReplyDeleteAgree with the first one. Though sometimes it feels like a tiring business to constantly forcing one self to be optimistic...
ReplyDeleteThese are great quotes and I especially liked Goldie Hawn's! Hope you're having a happy week :)
