The Happiest People.

Think the happiest people are usually the ones that have it lucky? Here's a story I read recently that might change your mind - or just make you smile.

There were two identical twins:one a hope-filled optimist and one a hopeless pessimist. The concerned parents of the twins brought them to a psychologist, hoping he might be able to help balance their personalities.

The psychologist suggested that on the twin's next birthday, the parents put them in separate rooms to open their gifts.
"Give the pessimist the best toys you can afford, and the optimist a box of manure", he said. The parents did as they were told.

When they peeked in on the pessimistic twin, they heard him complaining, "I don't like the colour of this xbox - it's for stupid people. And that ipod touch will definitely break! PSH someone I know has a bigger jumping castle than this!"

But when the tiptoed across the corridor, the parents saw their optimistic son gleefully thowing manure up in the air. He was giggling as he said:

" You can't fool me! Where there's this much manure, there's got to be a pony!"

The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything!
So put a smile on that face and start thinking half-full instead of half-empty. Everyday is a blessing in disguise!

And remember, Happiness Equals Bracket =)
