Happiness is a choice, not a condition or feeling created by others or by circumstances. Happiness is a realization that life is pretty darn good even in the face of transgressions by others and despite your current location in the epicenter of a major shit storm.

Really gives us a background of happiness on a cellular level It’s cool to think of how much our communities could change if we are all able to focus on the three components- happiness is contagious! Do genetics play a role at all in determining how happy we can become? I read that the length of the serotonin transporter can have some effect ones ability to look on the bright side (ie. people with longer transporters tend to be optimistic and vice versa)- any truth to that? Thanks for sharing Ingrid!
