"Find your happy

Melissa Peterman loves to make people laugh. "One of the best compliments I've ever gotten is when someone said, 'I was in a dark time, and we'd watch your show and it made us smile,'" she tells Woman's World.

"I see the love all around me, and my gratitude level goes through the roof!" Read on for her keys to always finding that light.
