What brings me joy these days has been very little. However, you reach a point in your life when you have to let the sadness go away and seek out the things that make you happy instead of wallowing in the overwhelming. Bogged down in the negativity, we forget those positive moments that made us so very happy.
What Brings Me Joy
Below is just a little something I made to showcase that I really do have joy in my life.
My Smilebox Creation |
All It Takes is a Little Creativity
I have so many tools at my fingertips, and being creative really makes me happy. I have taken so many amazing photos and had a great time putting this slideshow together. It reminded me of all the wonderful moments that I had in my life that brought me joy, peace, and happiness.
There were times in my life when I simply stopped being creative. I have to wonder why I did that. It made no sense. Looking back, I realize that I was caught up in doing other things. I forgot what was important to me.
Reign It In
The floodgates are open, and now I need to reign it in. Once I opened the door to my creativity again, I began all sorts of projects. I have a ton of works in progress, or WIPS as we like to call them. My problem is that I can’t decide which ones to do. For now, I am concentrating on a charity project involving a lot of yarn. I had intended for it to use up my stash, but then I bought more. Now I can’t seem to stop buying more yarn, lol! There’s never enough! Shhh…don’t tell my husband.
Wishing you moments to find more joy in your life!
