Life always has an unwavering way of continuing on, even though things are a little rough.  It is funny when you think about it.  You feel crappy, your life seems to be in shambles and still that clock still ticks, and things need to be done.  You all most need a time out where time actually stops and you are allowed and able to deal with whatever it is that is interfering/interrupting your perfectly sound life.

Well, you can not do this, and life continues at a marching pace.  The only solace that you have is the fact that whatever it is that is bothering you  did not kill you.  You did not die from a broken heart; your financial problems and woes are now taking the forefront and you are dealing with them instead of ignoring you current situation and life will continue on.

Somewhere, sometime, someone stated that life is not a race it is a journey. It is our way of inhaling all the the wonders that surround us, and make a promise to ourselves not to forget that life is good. 

Setting goals, even the smallest ones will allow you to feel a sense of accomplishment.  If you are not good at setting goals, make the first ones very small.  Something like: Once I clean the kitchen I will sit down and relax, perhaps watch a movie I haven't seen in a while.

Keep your own pace.  Don't try to keep up with someone else. There is always someone more skilled, and you will place yourself in a position of self doubt...let's try to avoid that!

Follow Your Happy!

​Happy Does It!

This winter has been a trying winter for anyone who lives in the eastern part of Canada.  There has been lots of snow, cold temperatures and little hope for winter to end soon.  On top of all that, where I live, there has been a lack of leadership from our government to do what is right.  In previous posts I discuss people doing the right thing; how helping one another is one of the keys to living a long a happy life. This is still true.

Your way of helping a friend or a neighbour, in a time when it all feels pointless of hopeless, could be doing something as simple as calling and lending your assistance.  I am not a person who touts the bible, but one of the ideas that is found throughout all religions is that many hand make light work.  Sharing and caring for one another makes this place a much nicer place to live.  The bonus is if you practice this, you will feel much better yourself.  So if  you are one of those inherently selfish beings, you will get back the effort that you put in.


Now, when you see someone that is blue, be yourself and try to help them.  Make them smile, laugh or just let them release all of the tension that they have built up. Be their rock to lean on and try not to be the boulder that is weighing them down.


This world could use a lot more nice and a lot more love.

Make your day happy....if not only for others, but for you.

And remember,

Happy Does It ;o)
