“ Sharing happiness could be as easy as making your kids a special batch of pancakes for breakfast, packing a lunch for your husband with a little note inside that says “I Love You”, or doing something special for a co worker by taking them to lunch or bringing them a treat.
“ Nothing gets us giggling harder than a dance party. When my kids are bored or even fighting over toys I know it’s time for a little distraction. They pick a favorite song, I turn the music way up and we boogie.
“ I’ve made it a habit the past year or so to pass on books after I’ve read them. As I’m reading, I think of someone who might enjoy the book next, and then I hand it off. Not only does it share the love of reading, it lets that person know I’m thinking of them.
“ In this day and age, with a failing economy, political debate, and the lack of appreciation of thy neighbor, words carry more weight than ever. And I am finding that words are, indeed, the one thing I can give everyone.
“ I take my daughter to the park as often as I can because it reminds me that true happiness is free.
“ Smiling is the one disease everyone should catch. It really is contagious. When you smile those around you will smile too.
“ I try to give as much as I can so I can set an example for my boys such as donating clothes, toys, stuff that I don’t need.
“ If your kids text a lot, just text them a quick note once in a while, or write one and stick it into their lunch boxes or on a bedside table. It takes just a few seconds to do, and even if your kids grown and find it cheesy, they’ll appreciate it.
“ Today, out of the blue, I made it a point to call my grandma. I see her often and we speak nearly everyday, but today I called just to tell her how blessed I was to have her in my life.
“ Day to day life can become so routine, that I have decided to take a new approach and try to incorporate a little “Happiness” at least once a day. From leaving my husband a note on his laptop, to leaving a handful of candies on my little bugs place mat at the table. That’s my little way of adding happiness to our everyday life.
