Happiness and being happy

Happiness is something which cannot be searched and found easily. Sometimes the answer to happiness lies deep within yourself; other times it hides in a secret corner you have to figure out and find. Happiness is not a thought, it's a feeling. When you're feeling happy, it is so much easier to have a positive mindset. THAT's thinking happy. However, if you're feeling kinda down, or need a bit of cheering up, sometimes TELLING yourself to think positive helps too. After all, there are times the mind and heart are connected in strange ways that only we ourselves can comprehend.
