“Happiness is a
conscious choice,
not an automatic
response.”
.
~ Mildred Barthel
.
.
You do not make me happy,
it is my response to you, my conscious decision
to make myself happy,
however, it does help when you do something nice,
something that makes my heart sing.
Today, to be happy I will consciously
go to wonderful places, do the next right thing
and hang with the beautiful people.
Today, follow my lead and be
conscious and be happy.
Happiness is a conscious choice.
Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

“A real friend
isn’t capable
of feeling sorry
for you.”
.
~ Jodi Picoult
.
No regrets, no remorse,
sorry doesn’t cut it.
A real friend knows compassion, empathy
and how to make a silk purse from a sows ear.
Even in the worst of times a friend is the ray of hope,
the silver lining to your dark cloud,
the pot of gold at the end of your rainbow
the soul who knows sorry is a mistake
that can be atoned for.
Friendship is never having to be sorry.
Friendship is a priceless gem
that is to be valued and protected.
