Hello friends welcome back to my blog.
Happy moments are moments filled with joy, intense excitement, cheerfulness and pleasure. Happy moments give support and true meaning to life.
Childhood memories are one of the purest and most innocent ones sometimes I wish we never grow up hahahahahah. There were lots of happy moments for me as a child but one stood out for me.
Back then as a child, there was this new school that was about to be opened so they advertised it in my church bulletin. The picture of the school building was drawn with the student on their beautiful school uniforms and it was an all-girls school. I loved this school but there was a problem I just been admitted into a new school and my parents had paid my school fees and every other fee that needed to be paid for my enrollment. So with that, I knew I had to kill my love for the new school and forget about it.
One day my elder sister came home and was discussing with my parents telling them about a new school building she saw somewhere that the school looked so good. When I heard her call the name of the school, it happened to be the same school I saw in its advertisement. All this while the school was under construction and its completion corresponded to the end of that year's academic section.
However, after many talks and conversations, my parents accepted that I would be enrolled on the new school in the next academic section. I was so happy. That happy memory is one that always remain fresh for me.
My dad was sick for some months which led to surgery. All thanks to God it was a successful one but his process of recovery became something else that When you are discussing with him, he does not coordinate he talks off and we all become worried.
Until recently he now talks coordinated and discussions very well as he used to. It made me so happy and am grateful to God for that.
The feeling of a happy moment is one that only a few people will say they don't like because the feeling is good both emotionally and mentally.
It reduces pain
Happy moments can help us forget our pains both physical and emotional and this improves our mood. Some health condition needs happy moments to improve, doctors also recommend being happy.

Yes, happiness is a choice. Some people have decided to be happy no matter the circumstances they are surrounded by while some people are pulled down and are unhappy and blame their unhappiness upon their circumstances if we all depend on our circumstances to be happy we will rarely have happy people in the world because nobody has a smooth life.
Happiness is an attitude that requires effort, you choose to be happy or not.
It's not easy staying happy or finding moments of happiness in difficult times because your mood will be off which is normal as human challenges come to test our emotions and mental strength.
But I have to work on myself for times like this. What I do is first be grateful for all I have achieved in life, hang out with optimistic people, set a goal to learn something new every day during this difficult time to engage my mind, and look for groups with like minds and join, I try to eat healthier, drink water and get rest. In all be kind to myself.
I have had a difficult time when I lost someone so dear to me and it nearly threw me off balance and this was how I overcame it.
