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!
