Happiness Project Week 27

You’d think I plan these prompts ahead of time and have them all scheduled and ready to go, but such is not the case. Though I am fairly organized in many aspects of my life, my blog, unfortunately is not one of those uber organized things, for the simple reason that I allow this space to be my creative space; to explore the journey and the destination.

Somehow however, each week, the inspiration finds me. And today, just a few hours ago I read the post of my blogging friend, Dr. Victoria Atkinson from Victoria Ponders. And let me tell you what an inspiration!

As you may know, Vicki recently published a book called, Surviving Sue. One of the strategies Vicki used in dealing with the pain and turmoil of the relationship she had with her mother Sue, was to write six word stories. This inspired my Happiness Prompt today, because I do believe happiness and particularly joy is uncovered when we move beyond our pain and suffering.

Here’s the prompt for this week.

And here’s the link to Vicki’s inspiring post: https://victoriaponders.com/2023/09/19/peek-inside-surviving-sue-six-word-style/

The Happiness Project is

my way of sprinkling happiness like fairy dust so that we can shift our perspective towards a happier more joyful life. Each Tuesday I will give you a prompt and an affirmation for the week. Use these to guide yourself towards a joyful life filled with gratitude and happiness. Think of it as your own gratitude journal.

Once in a while we’ll do a check-in to see how your happiness is improving, so keep slowly moving towards happiness and eventually to joy.
