happiness is...



Thank you to everyone who participated in the Eudaimonia {happiness} - Blog Parade event! We had at least 20 participants...and if you didn't put your link from your post to the mr. linky box, then please let me know, and I'll add you to the list! :) 

There were so many wonderful entries...! I had a great time going over and reading through all of them! Everyone did such a great job!

Tomorrow I'll draw for the giveaway so be sure to let me know if you made a list, but it isn't on the mr. linky list.  

*rambling warning*

When making a list of what makes you happy...it's not difficult to think up ten things. In fact, it's hard to think of just ten things. Let's face it...happiness is easily gained...sometimes acquired from the simplest things. 

I'd like to challenge all of you (and especially myself):
If it's so easy to make ourselves happy...it must be just as easy to make other's happy. So I challenge you to spend time thinking of small things you can do to place a smile on someone's face. Whether it's your mom (do the dishes without being asked?), little sister (watch one of her favorite movies with her?), a friend (sometimes a big hug and a listening ear is all that's required), or even a stranger you see at Walmart (perhaps giving them a smile...saying "yes ma'am"...etc). 

Thoughtfully yours,
Rebecca Jane
