Being Happy

Hello!

So I have a new goal. My new goal is to be happy. I'm going to do whatever and anything that makes me happy. That's it. I think everyone should do whatever it is that makes them happiest...most of the time lol. I mean, I don't want to say that in general, because to a serial killer that means killing people...and that's not good! But for the general population and those who are mostly sane...do whatever makes you happiest! I love music. I love the art of writing music, composing music, playing and singing music...I just love music. And I love feeling music...feeling it pour through my body, and just feeling it. Given this, I also love dancing. I'm not a "dancer" by any means, but I love moving my body to music. So I went to a belly-dancing class tonight. I've done it before a few years ago (you'll come to know that I've tried alot of stuff before lol) and liked it, but never really got into it. I had so much fun! And that's exactly what I needed. I needed to just have FUN, you know? And it made me happy. Watching my God-given hips (I think He may have given me more than my fair share, but I digress haha!) sway in perfect sync with the music was just amazing haha. So I think I'm going to sign up for more classes!

I think when we do things that make us truly happy, we can't be anything but positive. You can't be in the middle of something you absolutely love doing and are enjoying and think negative thoughts...it just doesn't happen. Any negative thoughts I harboured before the class completely dissipated while I was in it. So this is a new goal of mine, and I'm excited about it!

Now, I thought of including something about removing the things that don't make you happy from your life, but it's more complicated. Adding something positive  results in more positive (+ and + = +). But removing something negative...also results in positive (- and - = +). However discussing the removal of something is really a negative thought. And I mean, realistically we all have to do things we don't like to do. So, I'm not going to talk about it. But if something is truly making you unhappy, either think of a way to do it so that it doesn't make you unhappy (ie: work) or just get rid of it from your life.

Life is too short to be miserable!! Don't waste precious time on things that make you miserable...this is also a recent revelation!

Thanks for reading!! xoxo
