Good Saturday morning Colonel,
Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Being joyful is a choice. We can choose to be unhappy in life, or we can choose to be joyful, in all that life throws at us. For me, I’ve found that choosing joy versus dwelling in pity brings about a more fulfilling life. What do y’all choose? I for one am grateful to God, to allow me the choice to be joyful. Have a blessed day today and always.
