I finally noticed that I hadn’t been writing here. I was finding myself too busy to write. I wasn’t making the time to write. I was looking at the things I was interested in writing and deciding that you wouldn’t want to hear about it.
Yesterday I was at the hardware store. As I walked in the cashier called out “How are you doing?”
“Great!”
A bit later, another of the store employees saw me and also called out, “How are you doing?”
“Great!”
As I was checking out at the lumber counter, Keith came out and we chatted about the rail and trolley system I got up.
I was excited to talk about it, and he was happy to talk about his experiences with a trolley/hoist system.
As I came out of the store with a bounce to my step, I realized I was happy.
Maybe it was the sun shining. Maybe it was the snow melting. Maybe it was getting the trolley rail installed and a project nearly crossed of the list.
I do not know, but being happy feels good. I recommended it to all of you.
Maybe try it on for size?
being happy is way better than anything else.
Its not hard to do- stay away from politics and the “news” keeps the mood high.
I stopped asking people “how ya doing” cause alot of them are miserable and can’t wait to tell you all about it..
“whats goin on” is a better question to ask.
gratitude for your life is good for happiness too.
