The H is for ___ (Part 5 of 5)

The H is for Happy. What it means to be happy is to recognize and appreciate what you have. I don't know many people who can be at this phase so easily without going through at least one of the previous H's that I mentioned. It's being up after all your downs. There's no better feeling than being happy, whether it be genuine or just temporary. It's an accomplishment to be here because it's a sign of being able to overcome the problems and hardships. We look back and often wonder why we even hadn't gotten to this point sooner. Advice for being in this stage: Enjoy it while it lasts or hold on to it as long as you can. And if you fall away from it, knowing that you can always get back to it is half the journey.
