Your mind is the canvas upon which you are the artist. What will you paint on your canvas today? Will you draw a stick figure or create a masterpiece...? When I was young I used to think that happiness was sitting at home playing video games or watching television. Later, I realized that happiness is not sitting at home playing video games or watching television. Happiness is doing things that make you feel good about yourself and doing things that make other people happy. It is being successful in school, earning good grades, and feeling good about yourself.
