Decide to be Happy

For your consideration…..

As I so often have written, you have a choice. You always have a choice. So why not choose happiness? Most parents when asked what they want for their children will reply, “I just want them to be happy.” But so often they have, we have, forgotten about ourselves. When did we stop making or considering making the same choice for ourselves?

We tend to think it is inherent in our lives. Of course, we want to be happy. But it isn’t inherent. We have to choose it. We have to declare it. We have to expect it. It has to be a conscious decision if we want to attract it.

Make sense? Embrace the affirmation. “I want and deserve to be happy. I will be happy.”That is the HOPE.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, hope by hope action steps anyone can take……

-Meditate. Consider making it your goal to meditate for a 1/2 hour each day. You deserve it. You are worth it.

-Drink lots of water.

-Do something outside today if the weather permits. If not cuddle up with a good book for at least an hour. Or do something else that you love.

-Journal.

-Take in some deep breaths. Exhale all you no longer need. Inhale all your HOPEs and dreams.

What made me smile yesterday…..

-Beautiful sunshine in the day. Cool great sleeping weather at night.

-I got my school books. I can’t wait to start.

-Steak night at our Sportsmen’s Club with Jody, Julie and Bruce.

-Twice this week we have been blessed to have dinner with Julie.

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
