This is a picture of one of the joyeous moments in my life. I recently found the wonderful list of reminders on finding joy:
- Surround yourself with color--use colors that make you feel good
- Start or keep us a blog--express yourself
- Schedule guilt-free indulges--like chocolate
- Swap CDs with a friend--find out a little about them through music
- Be more spontaneous--do something at the last minute just for fun
- Spread cheer--smile at strangers, give compliments, be a good listener
- Think like a kid--make up a holiday to celebrate
- Find the humor in it--whatever it is, find a reason to laugh about it
- Make one new friend--only one if it is going to be a true friend, not just an acquaintance
- Get more sleep--at least 7 hours a night, lying in bed relaxing while you fall asleep counts
- Put your right brain to work--create an artists wall of your own work and change it often
- Have a pot luck with friends--strengthen the bonds of friendships and include your new friend
- Explore your hometown--you should know all about your surrounding community
- Do something that scares you--like jump out of an airplane :-)
- Simplify without stress--purge one thing every month for a year
- Take a "me" day--Schedule a one-day vacation that is just for you, do whatever you want
- Host a closet raid--invite friends to empty their closets and have a trading party
- Give good kisses--kissing releases a chemical that makes you feel euphoric
- Play hide and seek--write down fun things to do and hide them, when you come across one of them, do it
- Make your family laugh--do the unexpected, surprise them, be goofy for a change
