Happiness is a conscious choice, not an automatic response.

Contagiously Happy |
| “The more happy people you know, the more likely you are yourself to be happy” according to the British Medical Journal. We all have family members and friends who drain the life out of us with their unhappiness. In fact, I had an aunt who was a perpetual complainer and took pride in sharing her woes with everyone who would listen. When we visited her as children, we spent many a freezing day playing outside her house rather than take one step into the gloominess. Fortunately, the study showed that unhappiness is not contagious.
On the other hand, my grandmother, my father’s mother, was always happy. After my grandfather died, she worked for years, even into her late 70s, in a medical facility where she took care of the newborn babies of single, unwed mothers. She was the picture of happiness caring for and rocking those babies. After work, she gathered up her friends and family and went out to her favorite Mexican restaurants, to movies, to musicals and to plays. She played canasta and bridge regularly with her life-long buddies and her grandchildren and smiled constantly. She never, ever complained and only went to the hospital to visit others. Her quite and happy spirit was a light in my life.
According to this recent research study cited in Reuters’, “Each additional happy person that you know makes you happier. Above and beyond, there is this contagious process going on.” Is your happiness contagious to all those around you?
