Welcome to my A to Z Alphabetical Inspirational Word Journey for the month of April. Naturally, there will be a picture quote and music. 

I invite you to join me daily as I explore a word that inspires me and speaks to me in some way, shape, or form. 

See the whole list of bloggers HERE

My FB pic today says, "Happiness is a direction, not a place."

I don't agree with this.

I think it is both.

As I get older, I also believe you can talk yourself INTO happy.

If I have been having a not so wonderful day, and I catch myself bitching, moaning or complaining, I go all South Pacific on myself and start talking "happy talk."

It usually works.

Have you ever tried this on yourself? What strategies do you use to get yourself out of a crappy mood?

Disclaimer: having been on medication for depression more than once, sometimes, you DO need professional help. There is no shame in getting treatment when you need it.

PS - music today is a marvelously mellow tune that has a tremendous ending. Listen to the whole song!
And in the end, I made them see
This is what happiness means to me

I agree with you that Happiness it both a direction and a place. The Happiness Jar idea is wonderful.
