Anoush Harrison-Jackson Poet Free verse

To Be Happy

I choose to be happy 
                            In spite of the heartaches, headaches and even stomachaches
I choose to be happy...


I choose to be happy
                           Inspite of the frustrations, rejections and even opposition
I choose to be happy.....


 I choose to be happy amidst treachery, amidst violence , amidst corruption, amidst    deception. I choose to be happy...
 
I choose to be happy... 
To uplift with the radiance of smile
To be the change that I want
I choose to be happy...

Anoush Harrison-Jackson July 27, 2015 at 8:11 AM Happiness is a choice, it is a simply as that. Well, maybe not as simple based on the circumstances that confront you but if you can analyze it from a different perspective. You will eventually realize that every set back is a comeback. Embrace your situation and get ready for the next level. One love!!!
