LUCKY CHARM #7: BE HAPPY!!!

I was just reminded of how important it is that we need to focus on the beauty and pleasurable in the world.  If you should ever find yourself down in the dumps or feeling a little bit blue -- just remember to smile and find something - anything - to be happy about.  Focus on what brings you joy.  It could be a favorite song, a plant, a picture, your fave color or food, something in nature, a pet, something humorous, your children, friends, a hobby.  I happen to love the color pink.  Not only does it go with my complexion, but it is a color that indicates self-love.  Maybe you've done some volunteer or charity work.  That especially counts.  It gets your mind off your problems and focuses on helping others.  The point is to find something to be happy about, big or small.  Enjoy your day, your world, your LIFE!  Cheers!!

  2. I so agree with this. That's what I'm trying to accomplish with my blog Traveling Cats as well - bring a daily smile into people's lives. Hope it works. Have a happy Wednesday :)

    2. I have been blogging since 2009. The first name of my blog was "A Dreamed Named Vincent." I am a big fan of L&O:Criminal Intent and Vincent D'onfrio. But I changed the name of my blog site a couple of months ago to a more eclectic theme. I think if you look in "view my complete profile" you might see when I started. Have a very pleasant day. Cheers!!

  5. Hi-ya! Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. It's my pleasure to return the favor. Count me in as your newest groupie.

    Yes, happiness is a choice, and it has nothing to do with wealth or possessions. It has to do with attitude. It's about being appreciative and grateful for the beauty and blessings around us.

    Cheers!

  7. Some very good advise! I love listening to my favorite music. I play it loud, sing at the top of my lungs and if I know no one's looking - I even dance. LOL!
    Excellent.
