“Don’t waste a minute not being happy. If one window closes, run to the next window—or break down a door.” – Brooke Shields

Thinking like this always caused me to be happy rather than to self destruct along the way. Most of the time after I was about 30 years old I have been happy pretty much because I learned this to in my 20s. People who don't learn this are often soon dead or self medicate and are still dead in the end.
