how about time with a special someone?

a chocolate cupcake?

ohhhh... how about a nice warm snickerdoodle?

serving others?

We all come from different life experiences and walks of life, yet i bet we have more things in common & things that tie us in more important ways then what we might think...

Most of us have at least one hobby or treat that instantly lifts our spirits. For some lucky people, it's their job that brings them fulfilment. For others, close relationships are the key to contentment. Or maybe a favorite hobby.

Are there ways to increase our levels of happiness, particularly in the middle of a downturn?

One of the things that i use every single day is a "gratitude journal", listing all the little things for which I feel thankful on that particular day or week, or sometimes even in a moment.

Counting your blessings and reliving a positive memory from the previous day, week, month or year are two of the most effective techniques for boosting happiness for me.

I LOVE the Fall. I am sure it is my favorite time of the year. I now have another reason to add to my list of why i LOVE it soooo much!

Can you guess what i will be writing about in my "gratitude journal"?

Here is a hint: FAMILY!
