I'll Choose Happiness..

I have the choice today,
to be happy or sad
To wear a smile or a frown..
Bring others up or down..
I have the choice today,
to let all of the bad and negative things
that have happened to me,,
control ,take over and hurt me..
No one else has this power, except for me..
Today no one else can tell me who or what to be..
I and only I choose how laid back or productive I will be..
I and only I hold the power to choose how I live this day,
It is my choice if I choose to help someone less fortunate than I am today..
And my choice should I decide to just turn them away.,.
It is my choice today ,whether I see the sunshine, or the grey..
I am what I think..
And I think I'll choose happiness today!
