Why are people intimidated by happy people? I should think they would like to emulate us not immolate us.

Maybe it’s true that “misery loves company “! We have become a society that shuns ‘foreigners’. I think those of us who are happy and try to spread happiness even with just a smile are considered ‘foreigners’. How sad is that? Well, that should make ’em happy!🤗

Anger does more harm than good. Misery is counterproductive. Happiness should be contagious.

Contagious? A vaccine…that’s it Pam, you’ve hit the nail on the head. A vaccine for sadness…another bloody jab will fix everything. Well the vaccine makers will be happy from the money out of it anyway 😂 🤣

Some people enjoy being angry. They want the world to be angry with them. I think the world is angry enough.

It frightens them simply because they feel that they are not happy, so deep inside think that they have failed in some way, that there is something wrong with them. It all goes back to that core feeling as a child of feeling rejected in some way and not feeling good enough or lovable enough…and then comes along some happy, cheery soul to reinforce that inner pain. But one day, down deep inside…for us all something blooms in understanding…and a flower is born, and a very beautiful one at that 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋

Happiness and smiles are among the few things that cannot be taxed or otherwise harvested. Those who would deprive others are in need of healing. Sadly there is neither a thermometer to diagnose this condition nor a simple medicine to cure it.

But we can ameliorate the effects by simply continue to smile. It’s my job and I take it seriously.

Oh there is a cure, we just have to be brave enough to look into our hearts and understand the ‘why’ we react as we do to the pain we feel…and we are cured, free, happy and oh so loved because of it 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋
