Say Sweet Words

Tuesday, December 1, 2009

The last two weeks of November, I kept asking my husband, "why I am I so darn happy?"  I've been trying to figure it out for weeks, and I can't figure out why I am so happy!  Not, that I am usually sad, but there was a time in my life that I was, and I used to always ask, "why am I so sad?"  So when I started to ask myself, "why am I so darn happy?", it made me feel really good.  You probably think, I should just be happy and get on with life, without trying to figure why, but...I just don't do things like that.  I finally realized that it had something to do with my 26 days of gratitude last month.  Being grateful for life and writing it down and voiceing it out loud really does change your attitude and your mind.  You have no other place to go but up.  So with that, I decided that I would just continue on with this upward spiral of gratefulness and give you helpful words of encouragement this month.  So you might see a few words of encouragement sprinkled here and there in between Hanukkah and Christmas throughout my blog during this month of December.
