Happiness is…

July 1, 2011July 1, 2011 ~ Kath Thompson

I am happy when I am here typing.

I am happy when I am reading good books.

I am happy when I am feeling high energy, like after a workout.

I am happy when I think that my projects are going forward.

I am happy when I am doing my fundies daily.

I am happy when my space is clean and orderly.

I am happy when I have a felt sense that I am growing.

I am happy when I am feeling that I am inspiring other people to live their best lives, or to live better lives.

I am happy when the things I write inspire people and make them feel good about themselves and motivate them to contribute.

I am happy when I feel excited about the prospect of something new on the horizon.

I am happy when I am living in integrity; when what I think, feel, say and do are all in alignment.

I am happy when the sky is blue and the sun is warm.
I am happy when there is peanut butter toast and sweet cherries for breakfast on the first day of July when the sky is blue and the sun is warm.
I am happy today.

Breakfast. July 1, 2011 — Peanut butter toast, sweet cherries and coffee

I love yoga. Teaching and doing. I like to write, but I want to edit much more. Tragically, in order to have something to edit, you have to write something first. I try to scribble 1K words a day in Scrivener. I like wine. My favorite thing in life is having great conversations. I love to share ideas. Good conversation is becoming a lost art, though. If I don't do some yoga, meditate, and read and write every day, things really fall apart. I wish I would post on this blog more regularly. I'm going to work on that. View all posts by Kath Thompson

I am happy when Pete and I have time to talk over breakfast.

I am happy when Jeremiah giggles.

I am happy after my port is flushed and I can leave.

I am happy when I get to do yoga at the studio.

I am happy when I wake up after a good nights sleep.

I am happy when we have coffee in the yard and listen to the birds.

I am happy when my Nana & I have giggle fits and when my mom snorts when she laughs.

I am happy when I am taking pictures.

I am happy more often than not.

XOXOXOXO

activities to help you return to the present
moment and dwell in mindfulness).

I am happy when I am meditating.

I am happy when I am mindful.

I am happy when I am calm.

I am happy when I am reading an awesome book
or watching a movie that gives me an I have to write
that down and remember it moment.

I am happy when I am me.

I am happy when I am even keeled.

I am happy when I find someone with the
same interests as what I’m currently doing.

I am happy when I surprise myself by the things I do.

I am happy when when I smell the mind-altering scent of the warm night air.

I am happy when I put things out in the universe and know it will
be received and everything will work out.

I am happy when I know I did all I can and everything is aligned.
