Perhaps it hit a rut.
Most likely I have.
They say, all work and no play make for a very cranky day, and most moms know, it's completely true. I work. I cook. I do laundry. I taxi. I ....I....I.
I'm trying to get out of this rut, and even noticing the rut has to count for something, but life is taking over my happiness and it just makes me wonder, at what point does life become happiness? This is the essence of Be Happy. Knowing that you are already happy, and just pushing it away because you get something out of being unhappy. We spend so much time trying to find our way to happiness instead of just letting it be. We (and when I say we, I mean me) feel like something has to be achieved, bought, or done in order for happiness to settle.
Happiness just is, whether we recognize it or not. It's with us all the time, and most of the time we just ignore it.
Which leads me to my happiness project. Life is too short not to be happy, no matter what. Most likely we will still have our jobs and bills 5, 10 years from now, so we might as well learn to make peace and find a way to accept it.
The only way to get out of a rut is to do something different... over and over again. It's not easy, but I am going to try and figure this thing out. Is there really any other choice?
