When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile.” - Unknown

Be Not of Good Cheer: A Book Review of "Perpetual Euphoria"

“Ultimately, Mr. Bruckner himself comes across as neither a stoic who advocates giving up on happiness nor a sentimentalist who thinks pain has some intrinsic or artistic value. We are only happy, he believes, in spite of the suffering around us, and only for rare, unexpected and often inexplicable moments. Happiness, he implies, may not be as important as qualities like lucidity and dignity. But if you really want it, the best way to find it is not to care too much about it.”

Remember to stop and smell the roses… or pet a random stranger’s puppy on the street. That’s what I do! I’m reminding myself to take breaks often these days. Life isn’t always as stressful as we think it is, especially when we open our eyes to take in occurrences around us that seem quite average & nonsensical.  “When you stop doing things for fun, you might as well be dead.” - Ernest Hemingway I concur Ernest.

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down “Happy”. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life”. - John Lennon

Got a case of the Mondays? Watch this video of a 2 year old catching his first wave. I’m sure you’ll smile at the pure joy of impulsive adventure and fearlessness of children. My nieces and nephews often remind me to just go for it. :)
