What makes you happy?

Tulips #2 (c) 2009 by Tina M. Harris

I've been thinking this week about life, and about the things that make me happy. Too much of us spend too many hours of too many days focused on all the things we "have" to do and too little time on the things that make us happy. Days pass by in a blur, one year melding into the next and the next, and we wonder where the time has gone. Are we happy? Do we know?

Times are tough. Many of us are struggling. The economic downturn hit many of us hard, and despite the assurances that things are turning around it is sometimes difficult to believe. But I saw a video this last week that made me thing about my own attitude (you can watch it by clicking here), and to question what it is that makes me happy and how my life could change if I would learn to see differently. So, I am going to try that for a while. I am going to stop fretting about money, and how to make more money, and what I could do if only I had more money and I am going to start thinking about what really makes me happy in life -- and I am going to try focusing on that instead. Care to join me?
