Hey Happy Thursday, Friday, Saturday.....I say every day can be a happy day.....if that is what you choose.
Coco Chanel once proclaimed......there are people who have money and people who are rich. She was right; The things we usually prize most ---family, friends, experiences---don't come with a price tag. But even though we may say money can't buy happiness, many of us secretly believe we'd be happier if we had a little more money. And in fact there is a connection between happiness and money---you just need to know how to spend your cash. Money is "currency"; that word comes from the Latin root for "to run "or "to flow". What can we do to make it flow more freely and joyfully in our lives.
Studies say how you feel about money has a powerful effect on your ability to get more of it. People whose hands are clenched tightly around their cash, they're expressing the fear of not having enough. When they relax their grip, they tend to act in ways that encourage more money to come into their lives. I love this suggestion and intend to try it soon........Next time you feel up-tight about your cash flow, give away 10 singles....or 5 singles or whatever.....you know slip one in between the pages of some library books......stick a dollar in a pocket or two of a jacket at a used clothing store or a magazine on the rack of your favorite store....come up with your own ideas. This may seem as if it's about giving away money, but really it's about giving yourself something! Notice how much creativity you bring to the process, how good it feels to think of others. You can imagine the delight the lucky recipients will feel. That's a lot of bang for those bucks.....chances are you will feel happier and more relaxed----richer---no matter what your bank statement says! So when money worries arise, make it rain with those singles. Then relax your body, breath deeply, and count the blessings beyond your wallet.
THE LAW OF THE UNIVERSE.....Generosity like money, is a currency that tends to get repaid in kind! There are so many ways even some that do not cost money......a favorite of mine is to write an encouraging few words or phrases on a "sticky note" and stick them on a back of a cereal box, inside a book, under an item or whatever.....just giving someone a smile or a positive thought is also giving of yourself in another way!.....and feels so good......BUT don't let anyone see or know what you are doing.....it's for you!
Very cold, they got the new Pickle Ball down today and it looks so nice. Karrie came by and got the things I bought for Richie's box she was mailing. Tending Bree for the weekend.
