As I was sorting through the zillions of boxes of memorabilia I've lugged from state to state all these years, I found this neat little book I had made when I was 8 or 9, called "A Little Book of Happyness." Inside were pictures I had drawn of my whole family, lists of my cousins and friends, and little stories or poems I had written.
It was pretty much my current blog! Cute little whimsies about happiness and my life.
I couldn't believe it.
Perhaps this interest I have in happiness is deep-rooted, just part of who I am. Pretty neat, huh?
What parts of your personality have remained the same throughout your lifetime so far?
Read this and thought of you (and me a little too). Pretty cool, huh? Optimism is good for you and might be genetic!

ReplyDeleteI love you.
Kelley, that was a great article...thanks for the link! Yay for optimism, and now...to pack--because this move is going to be so great!! :) (being optimistic!)
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I wrote a book about being healthy and living a long time. I was less than 4th grade old. Hahah. Don't know how I was an expert. I don't have the book, but I remember it had 'keys' that began with the same letter like 'eat your veggies' and 'exercise.' Note sure what else I recommended, maybe wear your sEatbElt and don't do drugs.... Hope your settling in nicely TJ. Miss you!
ReplyDeleteThat's so neat, Laura. I guess our younger selves knew more about our passions in life than we could've guessed! We are settling in well, and so happy to be back near the fam!
