It's that time again...
That time where I want to relish the simple, little things that make our days so very enjoyable. Those little things that make life worth living, that make all the harder things seem not that hard anymore. In a time in my life where there can be challenges, hardships, things that are disappointing and frustrating, there is something that just seems to keep all of those in the background. There is something special that puts it all into perspective and something that keeps me smiling despite the tears that could be there instead.
And that something is who we are. Who the three of us are. We are three people who can not get enough of each other. We are three people who's perfect day is sitting on the porch in the sun, drawing pictures with "googly eyes", making "hand people", or spending hours in the lake. We are three people who thrive on hugs and kisses, smiles and giggles, and little acts of thoughtfulness. We are three people who find joy in lawnmower races, banana bread warm from the oven, and fresh eggs from our chickens.
Our life together is what makes everything so amazing and wonderful. There are so many little bits and pieces of it that I want to share. I have tried to live a life where these little bits and pieces are actually what life is about. They are what I choose to focus on. The simplicity of life, the joy in the little things, the fulfillment of being with two amazing people that make my heart smile every time I look at them...that's what defines my life. That's what I choose to focus on.
So with the beginning of another round of "30 Days of Happiness" I am giddy with excitement. I don't know where these 30 days will take me, but I do know where the last 30 days did. They brought me to an amazing place. A place of joy, peace, happiness, and a deep appreciation for everything in life.
And I'd like to ask for you to join me. Will you? I promise it will change your life. It did mine. Do it passionately and authentically with an open heart and mind, and I promise you won't be disappointed.
So begins my journey of another 30 Days of Happiness. Enjoy!
