Being Happy...

Hi All,

So, right now I am happy, and grateful.

No big change has occurred, nothing new has happened, I have just decided that I am going to enjoy feeling good!

Do you ever do that? Realize you’re happy… then think, “Is there something I should be thinking about differently, is there something I should be doing differently, is there something I should be feeling differently?”

I do, and then I tell myself to cut it out, or at least I am getting better about that!

There have been times in my life where I have thought… “Oh well, when THAT happens, then I will be happy. Or if that happens I will be happy, or if I can change this one thing I will then be happy.”

Isn’t it crazy to think like that???

Do you know how much of life we can actually waste thinking like that?

I do, I have wasted months, probably years!

I have been enjoying writing these blogs and getting peoples responses and reactions.

When you write, it is motivating to have people interact and share their thoughts, both positive and negative.

I don’t expect that everyone would agree with my perspective or perceptions all the time… that’s not why I do this, or why spend time working on different pieces.

I do this because I hope, and I have to say I love that word “Hope” such a powerful word, that maybe something I share will make a difference in someone’s life. Maybe someone who has been searching or struggling will find a sentence or a thought that will make them feel heard.

I think being seen and heard is a powerful thing. When I feel seen and heard, it affects my whole well being.

It’s not that I need people to like me, or agree with me.

So I hope that when people read these posts, they feel some semblance of being heard, and seen in the words that I write.

That something I have shared with either a struggle of mine, or a perspective of mine will resonate.

And in resonating, someone will have a better day because of that!

I hope you are happy today, and if not, I hope you will find something that can make you smile, and maybe just maybe, that will make your day happier….

We don’t have to wait for big things in our lives to make us happy.

Find joy in something … anything each day, and happiness will be yours.

Thanks for reading,

Pam
