The One About The Happy List :)
I've been so happy lately.
It's as though I've taken a happy pill of sorts, as though I've reachout out for the sun and put it in my pocket, as though I've won the lottery, as though I live in a perfect world and there is no such thing as global warming...oh and pretty much like Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday when Gregory Peck found her sleeping in one of the Roman public rotundas and she kept on saying "soooooooo happy."
Sooo happy :)
I have no secrets to tell. I'm not on drugs either and definitely did not cash in on a windfall. I'm just...happy!
They key is to really stop thinking about the negative things in your life and start focusing on the really positive ones. You might say, "Yeah right, easy for you to say since my problems aren't like yours." I do know that. We all have varying issues and varying problems. But we all share one thing in common, we all have something or someone to be grateful for. All you have to do is keep thinking about those things and you'll realize that life is not as shitty as you think it is. You should make a list. Ok, to make you realize it better, I'll share with you a list of things that make me happy lately:

Now, it's your turn. Your list does not have to be as long as this and it could also go on and on forever. The important thing is...pick out the positive things in your life and dwell on them. Life would be easier...life would be more beautiful and life would be more worth living.
As Christine Gambito would say in her famous website (www.happyslip.com), don't forget to wear your happy slip :) I sure have mine on all the time...how about yours? :)
