Finding Happiness


A while I was hanging out with a friend who was visiting in town. I had the pleasure of being with her entire family. They all seemed so happy. It was so refreshing to be around them. There was such an amazing spirit in their home. Later, I told my friend how great it was see them and that I can only hope to find myself so happy some day. Her response made me think. She said that I can be as happy as I want to be.

I've really thought about it a lot lately and realized how true that statement was. I have officially decided to make that happen for myself. I need to really look inside myself and find what is genuinely important to me.

I need to make a point to spend as much time with my family as possible, make my daughter feel loved every day and work with her on learning good values and treating people with kindness.

This is my start at finding happiness for myself. It will never happen if I wait for it to happen to me. I am on my quest.

An Inspiration


I just found an article on a childhood friend who is doing something so amazing to me.
I cannot belive how giving this is, and is such an inspiration to me. I wish I could only find the time and the energy to do something so great. Take the time to read.
