The joy that other people possess
Is well within our reach
We're all made up of similar stuff
I'm sure you've heard this speech

Well my friends, in my experience
It's a true and a provable fact
The more you look on the bright side
The more positive people you attract

They observe your sunny disposition
Wish they could feel that way too
It really doesn't take a lot of effort
Positive thinking rubs off on you

Picture all that is right with the world
Of the things that you possess
Don't concentrate on all the negatives
That will only cause you stress

Happiness is quite an infectious thing
Belt out an old good times song
Sooner or later believe me, good folks
People will start singing along

It's really the power of positive thinking
Happy always wins in the end
It's a human thing, we're born to cackle
So chuckle yourself silly, my friends

Happiness is infectious and we should be spreading it, not the virus. Tom
