Being Happy

Is it a state of mind? Can you always chose to be happy and then just be happy or is there more involved?

Someone keeps telling me that you can just chose to be happy and then you're happy but is that really so?

    I don't think so.
    I think...maybe...you can choose JOY...choose to ask for strength and trust to trust God through difficult circumstances and find ways to praise Him and see him working in the midst of those, but that doesn't mean you'll feel happy or be happy.
    If we could choose to be happy I don't think people would struggle with depression. Most people don't wake up and say, "I think I'll be sad/angry/scared/depressed, etc, today."
