Los Angeles, July 31 (IANS) Actress Jennifer Aniston says being happy is one’s personal choice and people can rise above their state of misery anytime.

“If you’re not happy, you can become happy. Happiness is a choice. That’s the thing I really feel. Like with friends who refuse to get happy, who refuse to rise above the place where they’re at,” Glamour magazine quoted Aniston as saying.
The 44-year-old had her share of pain. She was earlier married to actor Brad Pitt, but they parted ways in 2005 after five-year-long marriage.
Aniston is now engaged to marry actor Justin Theroux.
