Ready...Set...GO!

This is a journey we can all take together. It's an experiment of many parts. The goal is to come together as friends and learn from each other about what it takes to move us from hurt/sad/mad/angry or upset to happy. Now when I say "happy", I don't mean all smiley faces and strawberry cupcakes. I mean feeling calm and self-assured. Unflappable in the face of utter chaos. Grounded by a feeling of gratitude, even when everyone and everything around us seems wrong. Pulling back from our blaming ways to focus on ourselves instead, acting instead of reacting.
I am sometimes brilliant at it. And sometimes I stink. Sometimes I can chase away my own demons so fiercely I'm sure they'll never come back. Other times I can't pull myself up out of my own anger, resentment or sadness before it clouds my day and changes my outlook, Why? Because I forget how easy it is to choose. What's that all about?

Do you have similar experiences with your happy?

Let's talk about it here. And help each other.
