I agree that we do create our own reality. The same goes for happiness. I believe happiness is what we are, not something that comes from the outside. This world is made of polarities, and we can experience so called negativity and still be happy inside. We are here to experience the entire tone scale, so why do we consider ourselves not happy if we get sad or angry temporarily? To be happy I believe we have to know who we are. With that knowingness, little trips into the lower tone scale don't affect our happiness. It's the people who don't know who they are who create the lower tones most of the time and then consider they are not happy. Great videos. I agree that we do create our own reality.
