If you hate this and you hate that, if you cant stand this and that, if the only things that make you happy are things you cant do every day, like weekends or vacations or the company of friends, its only logical you will be miserable most of the time. The trick is to train yourself to find joy in as many ordinary things as possible, to see the silver lining in every dark cloud, to see the friend in everyone, to accept that so many things in your life are 100 percent beyond your control. Best of all, the trick is to protect yourself from yourself by keeping negativisim, defeatism, helplessnes, hopelessness, bitterness, resentment, envy, anger on a leash. Youre only human, sure, but just as it is in you as a human to succumb to the worst of circumstances, as happens to the best of us, it is also in you as a human to soar above them. A sense of hope, a sense of wonder, positivity, and strength of character are a muscle. You have to work them out. Allow as many everyday things as possible to bring you joy and you will be happy, sometimes worried and saddled with troubles -- cest la vie! -- but still and always capable of being at peace and happy and full of hope.
