Day 403

Good morning!  My name is Lauren and I am a grateful, recovering alcohol/addict.  I really like the above quote, because it is not that I couldn't have been happy with what I had before, it is that with what I was doing in my life I chose not to be happy.  So by quitting drinking, I chose to be haopy.  So now, it is not that I don't have problems, it is just now I know how to deal with them better.  I am more mature, and more knowledgeable about myself and my decision making skills to deal with life.  I do this by dealing with life on life's terms.  Happiness is appreciating what you have, not getting what you want.  Happiness is a choice.  So today I choose to be happy.  I am so blessed, I am so appreciative for everything I have. That's all I got today!  Be happy!  :)
