This post is so lovely in its simplicity and true-ness.
Isn't that the truth? Great post.
Natalie, did you think this up yourself? It's priceless! Really! And so, so true. Be happy...now. :) I dare you!
So very very true :D
Best post ever! And widely applicable beyond the writing world :-)
I agree with Adam--this applies beyond the writing-sphere. Even when life gets rough, there are still plenty of things to be happy about.
Have a happy week!
I don't know, a Jade rollercoaster would be pretty happy-making! ;)
Perfect!!
Very true.
Yep. Because you'll always be wanting more!
Thanks a lot, Natalie. Now I have "Don't Worry, Be Happy" stuck in my head.
Here's a little song I wrote...
You are too wise for words, Natalie!! :-)
So true! Sometimes we get less happy when we have those things. Thanks for the reminder.
I'm happy now and I don't have #1 but I do have #2. :)
Wise wise words.
xo
Oh man, that is "post on the wall above your writing desk material" for sure!! :-) :-) :-)
