Faith, to me, is what allows me to be happy no matter what. I have been blessed with so many good things in my life and all that befalls or befuddles me just makes me think something better is just around the corner. I am a natural depressed worrier. I have to work at allowing God to take some of my burdens. It may be several times in an hour where I have to remind myself that I am not carrying THAT particular burden and find something else to occupy myself with.
I have been very, very blessed. I try to focus on that several times per day. Hoping one day it will become "routine" to feel as happy and peaceful as I ought to feel.

Dianna, there must be some kind of chemical makeup within which makes some of us naturally happy most of the time and others more intense and worried. With my make-up it is a lot easier to have faith. I really do admire that you work so hard to overcome a natural tendency and to use your faith, and I am sure you will be rewarded for it. :-)
