100 Days of Happiness – Day 41

It’s easy to find sadness each day, but to find a moment of happiness is difficult. Last year, I couldn’t bring myself to finish the 100 Days of Happiness challenge. This year, I am more determined to finish it — Counting down to 2016 with Happiness!

The Happiness of Persisting with Happiness

100 Days of Happiness – Day 41

Life gets in the way of a challenge at times, that’s something I’ve accepted and known to be true. Over the last week, I’ve been ill, and not had things go my way. One thing in particular had deflated my confidence, and I couldn’t do this challenge of 100 happy days which I’d started. But I do not want to give up on it if I can help it. Happiness is… trying to remember what had made me happy over the last week, checking for photographs if I had taken them and drafting a lot of posts to publish on the morrow. I have the 52 weeks of Gratitude challenge to complete too, so more catch-up posts to come soon as well.

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
