Happiness is... |
Over the
past couple of days I’ve read two different posts by friends where they focused
on what happiness means to them. One fellow blogger termed her examples of
happiness as pillars of happiness. I
took this collision of coincidences as in indication of what I should talk
about today – Pillars of Happiness.
Although we
all have different definitions of happiness, we recognize it when we see or
feel it. It could be that warm feeling you get when a child comes up and gives
you a hug for no reason, or that high you experience after attending a writing
conference (oh, wait that’s my reflection).
The experts
say pillars of happiness include the following components: gratitude, purpose,
values, balance, health & wellbeing and support. If I had to list my top
pillars of happiness they would be:
- Faith
-
Friendships
-
Family Gatherings
-
Reading/writing (anything related to
this…attending writing conferences, sitting on my porch reading on a sunny day,
etc.)
-
Health (going for walks, eating
healthy foods along with the other stuff)
Below is a song titled Happiness to get your motivational juices flowing.
