Happiness is a choice. No matter what the universe throws at you, you can make the conscious choice to surround yourself with positive people you love, and fill your days with little things that make you happy.
At the end of the 365 days, even with tragedy and misfortune thrust upon you, you can look back and smile. The good will outweigh the bad.
Bring on 2020....
If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.
