People may interpret happiness as the material things that someone owns. I often hear that people who are rich are “happier”. Happiness is not based on the money you have or the materialistic items that you own. Someone who is a millionaire could be unhappy, so could someone who barely has any money. Happiness is how those individuals interrupt those negative things in front of them with a positive outlook on the situation. There are so many reasons that you should be happy right now, but here is a list of 8 reasons to be happy.
1. You are alive
If you are reading this, it is safe to say that you are alive.
2. Today is a new day
Yesterday could have been a bad day, but since today is a new day. You get to start fresh.
3. It is contagious
Happiness is contagious. You have the opportunity to make someone else happy. Just a simple smile can make someone’s day.
4. You are loved
You may not know this, but the people who surround you in your life love you.
5. There is something good
At times, it may be hard to believe, but even when it seems like everything is going wrong, there is something good bound to happen.
6. You will benefit your health
It is proven that happiness has a positive impact towards your health.
7. You never know what life has in store
I am a firm believer in God having a plan for everyone. You never know what is coming next so enjoy every second of life
8. Because, why not?
There is no reason that is good enough not to be happy.
The key to being happy is setting goals for yourself and always working towards those goals. When you achieve a goal, set another one. Find things that you love to do and involve yourself, you might be amazed the places you go with it. Like I said, happiness is contagious. If you help make someone else happy, their happiness could shed onto you. Life is too short to not be happy, enjoy every second of it!
