Us human beings make things more complicated than the really are– that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 8 : 43  PM on day 549 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, prepare and publish my Disability of the Day feature, work, drink tea by myself, feed myself an avocado sandwich for brunch, tweet about my 21 For 21 Campaign, work some more,   feed myself spaghetti and vegetables  for dinner, watch TV, brush my teeth once more, watch some more TV, continue reading Catching Fire – the second book in The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins – and continue watching TV.

Today I was watching an episode of The Dr. Oz Show on which a particular segment focused on 4 steps to becoming a happier person in 28 days while watching that segment I couldn’t help feeling that people were overcomplicating happiness, happiness is the choice you make to perceive your life in a positive light regardless of your circumstance I should know I have every reason to be miserable – I need help to do almost everything other people take for granted – and yet every day I find one thing to be grateful for. Do you have a knack for turning the ABC’s into rocket science?
