You all know how fond I am of KarmaTube.org, and if you're not already fans of this wonderful blog of inspiration- I highly recommend you hitch your ponies to some positive goodies- especially since it's April which can be a bit anxious-making.
And since this month is, also, all about Glamor, KarmaTube's reminder feels extra apropos. An oldie but certainly a goodie- (where were all of you when you first heard this one?) - the story behind the song makes it all the more uplifting-
Don't Worry Be Happy

Don't Worry, Be Happy
Ten-time Grammy Award-winning artist Bobby McFerrin is a musician with sophisticated and eclectic talents. However, his biggest hit was this simple, catchy song he wrote in 1988, after seeing the inspiring words of an Indian mystic. "Whenever you see a poster of Meher Baba, it usually says 'Don't worry, be happy,' which is a pretty neat philosophy in four words, I think." Pretty neat and simple philosophy indeed.
