30 Days of Happiness: Day 7

Enjoying my mom's Livingston Daisies, which will only open in full sunshine. Don't they look as if they belong in a fantasy world?

30 Days of Happiness: Day 5

A joyous evening walk to the docks, in salty warm air. A much needed reprieve from the seemingly unending rain.

30 Days of Happiness: Day 4

Happiness today, is a cheesecloth bundle...

of wild blueberry leaves. A bundle, with the ability to nudge white silk, into becoming...

indoor sunshine.

Sunshine, this grouchy little duende so desperately needs.

30 Days of Happiness: Day 3

Crossing a bridge can come at the beginning, at the end, or right smack in the middle of a grand adventure. Often the most challenging will lead to the happiest moments.

30 Days of Happiness: Day 2

Happiness, is seeing my two sweeties share the love of an indoor soft house (with a lantern of course), on such a cold drizzly day.

30 Days of Happiness: Day 1

Amidst one of our favorite wooded spots:
E netted sticklebacks, J fell and stomped in streams, and as I collected blueberry leaves, I happened upon these beauties enjoying each others company.

Though we are happy as we go about our own tasks,
our happiness is increasingly brighter,
knowing that a friend is nearby.

Upon visiting Erin's blog (Bluebirdbaby) today. I was inspired to come along on her "30 Days of Happiness". Celebrating joy, peace, happiness, and a deep appreciation for everything in life.

Her blog is full of sweetness and inspiration, and this challenge came along with great timing. I have been feeling so very blue, and the constant rain falling on the roof is not helping out in the least bit. And so...

...focusing in on the positive forces and gifts in my life right now, just might take me into the sunshine.
