Life is always inconvenient and there is never a good time to let ourselves be happy if our happiness is based on circumstances.  It's natural to keep our eyes upon some elusive goal which will define success but the goal posts keep moving or there is always some other technicality that supposedly keeps us back.   So don't wait to be happy, there's plenty to be happy about now.  You're alive.  God gave you a body that allows you to be apart of life on earth.  You can choose to be grateful to God and a blessing to others, or be sour that life isn't better.  Happiness is hard work.  It begins with a choice to be grateful for what we have and to honor the God who made us, in spite of what humans have done with their freewill to good God made.
