I have to admitt that I am happy most of the time. Even in difficult situations I look at the bright side. My life isn't perfect or anything but what I do in very difficult situations is reflect on other difficult situations in my past(and I have had plenty) and remind myself that they always seemed to work out with time and those situations do not seem so bad in the present. I know the current situation will also flesh-out with time as well. I have also learned it is important to be pro-active in ones life to elimintat those bad situations that we CAN control. Then I am just left with the situations that I have no control over. Many people burden themselves with the situations they can and can't control. That can be overwhelming and add stress to already depressed situation. Anyway, these are just some of my thoughts.

I hope you realize how blessed you are. I envy people who are positive thinkers and are optimists. Being a pessimist is such a dire way to live.
