HAPPINESS NOW!

Happiness now was the topic of the day yesterday for me. I was petsitting with my little 15 year old Golden, "Spring" on Monday night and was reading a chapter in a book called Happiness Now. the first chapter was about how the now holds all the happiness and bliss and that attention to the now is the key.

So yesterday on my dogwalks I made sure I kept in the "now" and made sure to stop and smell all the roses I could, looked closely at the beauty in nature and said hello to everyone I met along the way. There really is so much to bring happiness and bliss in just smiling at someone and seeing there face smile back. I love that and do it as often as I can.

Today I plan to do more of it and pay attention to the "now". How have you found happiness in the now? Please share, I'd love to hear your comments! Have a wonderful day full of creativity and happiness!

30 DAYS OF GRATITUDE

For the last 4 or 5 months I have been writing everyday what I am grateful for and keep a record of my daily abundance as well. I have noticed that lately I am feeling the benefits of this.

Yesterday, as I was visiting my friend, Lexi, the 14 year old golden retriever, I felt so much joy and so much love for her and connected with her like I have never felt with her. I sat on the rug with her and was kissing her head and told her that I loved her and she kissed me on the chin. She has never done that before and it was just so sweet.

I am reading a book that has a chapter on gratitude that says the more you are grateful for your life as it is you will recieve moments of bliss, joy and love because of it. She also went on to say that for 30 days she wrote 5 pages of gratitude every morning and after the 30th day her life was filled with an abundance of bliss because of it.

I started my 30 days this morning and it was easy to fill the 5 pages. I cant think of a better way to wake up! I am looking forward to more blissful moments with my doggie AND people friends!

Would love to hear what you are grateful for today! I am absolutely grateful everyday for being able to connect with all of you and for your lovely comments. Thank you!
