Getting Through Your Go Through

I often wonder what people do without a strong spiritual connection when life seems to pile up on them. What do you do?  How do you get through when you are going through?  People don't understand why I am smiling and jovial most all of the time.  There are days that I have to remind myself to keep smiling.  We can make a choice to be happy; even in the face of adversity.  Making the choice are the operative words here.  Choose to be happy and experience the fullness of life or choose to dwell in a place that will grow despair like a weed.  What do I do when I am going through?   I love music and I love to sing, so I listen to my favorite music.  Gospel, R & B, or jazz are my genres of choice.  I keep a song in my heart and I sing myself happy.  No, really, I keep singing until I am overjoyed! I remind myself that I have authority given by the Most High to overcome the obstacles that I face.  In the wake of possibly being jobless soon, I have kept my sanity.  I know that there is a plan for my life.  I also know that there is a season for everything.  How do I get through?  I keep a song in my heart and I keep the music flowing around me.  What do you do to get through when you are going through?   Share your strategy in a comment.
