AMEN and well said. I never have a bad day, nor a bad boss. I surround myself with happy people and happy thoughts, it is a challenge sometimes, but I just blow it off. Even in my worst times, I don't fret about the stuff I can't change.

So no it is not illegal. Personally I think God wants us to be happy with all of the blessings he has blessed us with. Even bad or sad things that happen, there is always something to learn or gain. Sorry for mentioning my God but that is just me. Without him I could do nothing.

Gramof6 - don't worry about mentioning your faith.
I am not Christian; as long as you don't engage in telling me that I'm wrong for that, we will get along. I just ask that you give me as much respect for my faith as you expect for yours.

Is it so wrong to just be happy/content?

Noticed your in Plano Tx. I live in Flower Mound, TX but work in Plano. Howdy Ms. Happy. I believe he world would be a better place if everyone tried to be happy. My attitude is that I determine what kind of day to have and I choose to be laughing and gay unlike others who prefer to be unhappy and grey.
