A Joyful List!

Thinking about happiness is so important, thinking only about yourself is too narrow. So this is a list of 31 things that would make me happy if everyone, everywhere, had those things.

Describe one habit that brings you joy. This is so true. They are my joy I think I must be the most boring person on the planet. That or the most blessed because it takes so little to make me truly happy. To me, one of the luckiest character traits you can have in lifeContinueContinue reading “Cuddling Cats”

Can’t Remember

Write about a random act of kindness you’ve done for someone. My life is about kindness and if I can be there for anyone, or see an opportunity to lift them up I will take it. This isn’t me ‘being’ a good person, it was born from my reaction to my past, to be aContinueContinue reading “Can’t Remember”

As a Feeling

How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you? Loving light? This wouldn’t be a great likeness but the image felt right somehow. As I focus on it I realise that I’m a pretty plain person. Hair simple, make up simple, no frills or flounces that can catch in a door, or leaveContinueContinue reading “As a Feeling”

True Love

If you’ve struggled finding true love, or it goes wrong every time, there’s a reason for this. A little-known emotional hitch that sounds like a cliche and is in fact very real.

Life cruising alongContinueContinue reading “Today was yesterday”

I Am Who You Meet

I won’t be alone in the fact that over my lifetime people have told me many things that I can’t find when I look inside. My ex husband was a gaslighter who toldContinueContinue reading “I Am Who You Meet”

Why?

If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be? I quite like the Brontosaurus However, what about working to bring back some of the species we’ve lost recently? Ones more suited to this world and our climate? Daydreams are nice, but our eco system is collapsing and the right mix of animalsContinueContinue reading “Why?”

All Perspectives are Right

As I was finishing this morning’s prompt I chose a funny meme, which triggered a creativity loop. Perspective is personal My Guide Amos suddenly comes out with the most unexpected things. I was worrying about a friend who has a very sad situation with a family member. Amos suddenly chimed in with: “They’re both completelyContinueContinue reading “All Perspectives are Right”

Same Question Different Day

If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go? Why would I want to go anywhere? I have five of these including one very similar, and when I’m with them I’m happy. Holidays are wonderful but being happy at home is better. After all you’re there most of the time. We’ve answered soContinueContinue reading “Same Question Different Day”
