Creating

Happiness

Enjoy the journey one step at a time

Explore

Go on a walk everyday. Notice the clouds in the sky, leaves crunching, fresh air, & colorful trees swaying. Hammock above a river. Camp under the stars.

Uplifting Music

Listen to inspiring music such as Enya, Les Miserables, Songs from a Secret Garden, Schubert, Chopin. Learn to play an instrument.

Be Playful

Play games such as Rummikub, SkipBo, Ticket to Ride Europe, Cover Your Assets, Cover your Kingdom, Five Crowns, Phase 10, and Mancala.

Choose to Laugh! No matter what happens, the one thing in my control is my attitude.

Celebrate

Little moments of progress are a big deal. Have a party with family and friends to celebrate. If alone, you can still laugh lots watching comedy, Random Acts, or baby polar bears livestream at the zoo.

Create

Anyone can be creative even if you thought you weren't artistic. I am living proof. I also enjoy writing, calligraphy lettering, book-binding, and photography. #CreativityStillExists

Appreciate

Daily writing a "happy moment" changed everything for the better. I'm happier when I focus on what I do have and still can do. "I'm not where I wanna be but I'm not where I used to be."
