Because I have the joy enough to know that everything's going to be alright in the end as there are more things to be happy about or to worry about. Be happy about being able to survive. Be happy that you're still alive through all of your hard times. Instead of thinking of the negatives, I turn to think about the positives about the situations, no matter how hurtful, how merciless, how bad...because this merciless world is part of a series of obstacles...to build our characters, to test us in a way, and if you're too negative and you give up, then you give in too much into it and you tend to fail. And you can't change how BS this place can be sometimes.
My advice is too always be optimistic with situations, and make the best out of it. Instead, see the world not for its flaws but for its beauty...show it by giving love not only to yourself but to others. Everything we choose to do comes from the inside. In order to be happy, you have to be in harmony and nature with your inner soul. CHOICE is definitely the word.

It is true that world is merciless, but it doesn't have to be, hon. You do your best to show mercy, love and compassion to those around you and that way you'll do ''your part of the job.'' You can't change the world. Be the change you want to see in others :)
Yes, world is a shi**y place to live in, but don't forget the butterflies, fluffy bunnies, children smiling. There's so much to be happy about.

It's not merciless. Even if it was, I'd still be happy. I'm amazed that I'm fortunate enough to exist at this time and there is always something to be happy about.

I try to make the best of it. I try to look for the silver lining in this merciless world.

Because I learned that it is God's planned purpose to restore both the earth & mankind to perfection, by clearing away all who work against His plans:
"...Evildoers themselves will be cut off, But those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth... just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be... The meek ones themselves will possess the earth,And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." --Psalm 37:9-11 (compare Mt 5:5 & Rev 21:3,4)

funny, the name you use deceives the very thought of it...
happiness is the sole responsibility of each one of us. the world isn't merciless. you only think it is because thats how you want it to be.
Be happy regardless of the circumstance you are in and you shall find contentment.

first of all is knowing that it is one of the things 1 timothy mentions.
It is a part of the factors with other things, that we are in the last days. So this worlds system of corruptness is going to come to an end. So its a goal we have in expectation.

Because in this one moment in time...right this moment is there anything that is overwhelming to me...at this moment can anything hurt or dismay me...can I choose to smile and laugh and dance...wow...What power is there in the power of choice...
My little part of the world is not merciless...I choose what to make of my little island of reality...and it is kind and good and nurturing

Everyone is just about as happy as they make up their mind to be.
Happiness - like peace of mind and contentment - comes from within. If you allow external circumstances to dictate your own happiness, odds are good you will never be happy.
