Positive thinking seems to be the answer to all of lives troublesome times. For the most part I would have to agree. As long as you convince yourself that everything will be okay, or everything happens for a reason (even if these were former concepts you laughed at), then you really can put your mind in a state of ease or even happiness. This worked for me, and I am sure it will continue to. However, nobody really seems to have an answer for those moments when you see through the bullshit. Life really is just a pretend game, and it can be dangerous if you pretend too hard.
You can spend days, weeks, months pretending life will be wonderful again and if you choose happiness it is that easy to be happy. I highly suggest this way of living. Word or warning though, if you choose this euphoric pretend life, when and if you fall, you fall from a much higher building. I am trying to recover from this fall. Standing up and dusting myself off again is not what scares me. The scary part is the choice I will be faced with. I turn around and look at this skyscraper I fell from and I ask myself, do I climb the steps again, in hopes they will climb higher and higher, or do I choose a shorter building with an elevator.
A real happiness is not just a state of mind true happiness comes from the people and places around you that give you that feeling of happiness so that fall you speak of is nothing to fear because you know it's inevitable but when it does happen embrace it as a chance to find happiness in other things and people but know that your friends that surround you will always be there to pick you up
