Today my friend informed me she is reading The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin.
So I swung by the library and picked up a copy. I haven't begun to read it yet, but as soon as I do you can bet I'll be posting about it!
Today was about simplicity for me. I did not have to work so I focused on a handful of necessities (vacuuming out my car, helping the folks put things up in the attic) and a handful of fun things (going to the movies to see The Woman In Black, eating a late lunch at one of my favourite restaurants, spending quality time with my family)
I am blessed. It is so important for me to remember why I don't have all the things I want in my life right now: because I already have so much. Although I can feel bummed about not being in a relationship, especially just after Valentine's Day, I need to focus on the fact that it might just not be the right time for me to have one. When the time is right, it will happen. I believe that wholeheartedly it is meant to be. In the words of Damon Salvatore (LOL!) "It's right, it's just not right now."
Simplifying my life will help me on the way to remembering and valuing what is important, and taking the focus off all the things I constantly worry about that don't really deserve my attention after all.
Today I found my SERENITY in a balance of work and fun, of needs and wants. I can't wait to see what joys and SERENITY tomorrow will bring for me.
