It really does go to show you that being surrounded by positive emotions really can bring your day up and staying near happy people can really make the worst day seem not so bad. I mean, if they can be happy, then why can't I be happy? It encourages one to look at the positivity. Even during the darkest days, just really seeing people enjoying their lives, being positive from the hardships, it really does stop making anyone feel sorry for themselves.

I agree with you. Being around people who are happy, will make you happy as well, at least will reduce the grief. Because people are happy to issue a positive energy, and can be absorbed into your body, consciously or not.
If you practice energy management, you can suck the positive energy from others or from nature more effectively.

Indeed, it is a great thing to really feed off of, and really make our lives a bit more easier. Positivity will lead to more positivity after all. There are just going to be many times where the people that we are going to surround ourselves with in our life are going to be the people who are going to lead us to be a bit more happy or not so happy, depending on what is occurring.
Yet, it does give us some hope, some strength, to really do some good things right in our life. That is why being surrounded by some positive people right in our life is something that should be encouraged and not really discouraged. Something that will cause us a great deal of comfort. And hopefully lead to our lives being far more productive and enjoyable.

Sometimes though it is hard to find those happiness and encouragment from others! I have found that I am often the 'light' or have the advice that could equal as the silver lining in the clouds for others. But when it comes to myself, I find it hard to find the positives, or others that will help me remind myself of the positiveness of life. They will just ususally come down with me.

Yes in the end, the final decision ultimately comes down to what we are willing to do in life. And here is the problem, there is really no forcing happiness when you think about it. On the flipside of things, you do look at a lot of people who are rather negative in a dismal place and a lot of that is because they either have not found the strength or are unable to see it.
It is really an unfortunate time, as the world can be a cold and harsh place, but even more so, for not seeing the positivity out of the situation. There are just many times where things are going to be rather ultimately positive. In the end, hopefully positivity can be something that will shine through. It could be inevitable something will happen but it does come harder for many.

Yes, it is True that happines and Excitement about something can be increased when you take time to be around people who will encourage you more to keep on going and encouraging you from there. Personally, these are the same people in your worst days that will really be there for you, prodding you, and standing by you til the very end. We all need people like this.

I get encouragement from being in a positive atmosphere too. I think that people forget sometimes how much their actions can effect the people around them. It's hard to be in a negative environment, even if you are a positive person too. It can really bring you down.

I like to see people who have good simple mind can live happily. They who just simply doing the good things they knew, and enjoy their lives.
I agree, we must live around the positive environment and surrounded by positive people. When we get along with the artisan perfumes, we will also get a fragrant.

Hello megamatt, whenever I am down and out, one of the things that I usually do is to surround myself with positive and happy people. That is always one of the best way to combat sad days in my opinion. Being positive is always contagious so it is good to be around them and get pleasantly infected with their happiness.
