Gift…
I love reading “Mirth and Motivation‘s” Blog Site … It “Motivates”…”Elevates”… “Makes You Laugh”…and promotes “Living Positively”…
This is their title… and it follows through with great thought-provoking writings…
It was mentioned the other day that maybe we should try creating a “Joy Compass”… which entails answering the following statement…
I am following my joy when…
I thank God for coming into my life so many years ago…
I wake up with a good attitude…
I’m a good partner to my husband…
I tell my son’s “They’re the best!”
I’m a grandma to my grandkids…
I’m a good role model…
I care for others …
I give time to things that will make a difference…
I create something…
I take time to view nature in all it’s glory…
I keep my body healthy…
I smile and talk to strangers…
I’m there with a listening ear…
I don’t judge those who have different opinions and views…
I do something for myself that makes “me” happy…
I discipline without guilt… knowing it’s part of parenting…
I take care of what has been given me…
I honor others with compliments…
I show compassion…
I show love…
I think things through before commenting…
I investigate new things… new words… new ideas…
I keep things clean…
I play with my cat Jill…
I keep in touch with friends and relatives…
25 Joys… and I probably could think of so many more…
It gave me contemplating time… to do this exercise…
It let me know what’s really important in my life…
Thanks “Mirth and Motivation”… always a JOY!
