I got started thinking about what really makes me happy. These are only "a few" but I hope I will think of many more. My life is simple. I love my little family and my relationship with my belief in a Father in Heaven that have got me to and get me through EVERYTHING in my life so far. Thanks Cherilyn for your post that inspired me to write what I love and am so grateful for. These things truly make me happy. There are things that make me unhappy but I tried not to list that stuff. I don't want to dwell on it or offend anyone. I hope all you blog stalkers out there will re-post this idea on your blogs when you have time. If you don't have a blog, I encourage you to write a list of things that make you purely happy. Keep it in a bible or journal or drawer and visit it often to enjoy your life. This was very therapeutic for me tonight. I'll try to revisit it too.
x's and o'ses. good night. ;)
