~~~~~SO CHECK OUT THIS STORY~~~ENJOY~~~~~~~
A 92 year-old, petite, well-poised and proud man, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with his hair fashionable combed and shaved perfectly, even though he is legally blind, moved into a nursing home today...
His wife of 70 years recently passed away, making the move encessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready.
As he maneuvered his walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of his timy room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on his window.
"I love it", he stated with the enthusiasm of an eight year-old having just been presented with a new puppy. "Mr. Jones, "You haven't seen the room; just wait."
"That doesn't have anything to do with it.", he replied.
Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the funiture is arranged; it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it. It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do.
"Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect nothing."
