I'm Off...

It's been almost three rather rough months since the birth of baby number five. After a lot of introspection, I have decided to cast off my burdens. There has been too much stress and not enough joy in my little world, so I'm off to seek a little sunshine and find joy in my journey. I tend to experience trials as if I were looking through a magnifying glass. Every mole hill becomes a mountain. But I listened to a favorite song yesterday that said:

"Sometimes, that mountain you've been climbing
Is just a grain of sand.
What you've been out there searching for forever,
Is in your hand."

This week I'm going to take a look at what I've got and hopefully find and appreciate the beauty there.

I'll be back to report on my progress. You'll hold me to it, won't you?

Of course I'll hold you to it. But don't be too hard on yourself.

Here's a great website that I've found helpful in reminding me to find happiness: http://www.happiness-project.com/
