Feeling down and depressed? Scroll through this list for something to smile about.
Some days (or even weeks) make you feel like the world is dragging you down. You can’t get ahead in life, bills are coming up, it seems like there’s only bad news every day. It hurts to feel depressed and down in the dumps, but maybe more of the people in your life have these feelings than you first thought.
For this reason, it is important to stay connected and give those around you a pick-me-up (just in case they need it). This list of 50 of the best happy quotes is meant to be that pick-me-up.
Some of them are meant to give you inspiration to continue working on your goals (or just get you through today), while others will give you a chuckle to put a smile on your face. There is something on this list for every mood, and every quote is without the negativity that pervades most of the other articles you’ve read on the internet lately.
Even after you’re done scrolling through this list, try to keep some of the positive (or funny) thoughts in the back of your mind for the rest of the day. You’ll feel just a tad more confident, and I guarantee it’ll rub off onto the very coworker, boss, family member or significant other who helped put you into a negative mood.
