About This Quote
Happiness is something that everyone should strive for. Happiness is a choice. The path to happiness, however, is not always easy. It may not come to you quickly or easily.
You are the only one who can make the choice to be happy. If you are unhappy, you must choose yourself to be happy. Peace of mind comes when you choose peace over competition and competition over conflict.
Peace of mind is the reward for choosing peace. Peace cannot be forced upon you, but it can certainly be achieved by your own efforts.
