Yesterday one of the girls' shared how she became a Christian. What struck me the most was how she said a big part of it was her knowing how to solve her problems, but just not doing it, or being able to take action to solve them. She also said that it was a choice, to be happy or not (she was depressed for a period of time). She chooses to be happy and says sometimes it's forced to begin with but sometimes that's what you gotta do in order to get into the 'habit' of being happy. Choosing to be happy.
That's pretty much what I have been trying to do a whole lot of for most of my life.
