Happiness...

I have been wanting to blog for several days now, but I had no idea what I wanted to blog about.  I went through waves of having too many ideas that I couldn't settle on one, and then waves of nothing, just blank.  It was quite frustrating!  So I kept putting it off until I had this magical, AH HA moment.  That didn't really happen.  Then I remembered my cousin Sam, an awesome blogger and writer sent me this picture incase I ever get the "bloggers block".

Alright Hemingway, I will give it a shot.

I am Happy.

That is right folks, I am happy.  That is what came to mind, and it is the truth.   And NO I am not listening to Pharrell's song Happy... Happiness is a funny thing because it comes and it goes.  It is not a feeling or an emotion that is constant.  There are things in life that will happen that will make you feel unhappy, sad, angry, depressed, etc.  However, I think it is a conscious choice that we can make to be happy.  I am not saying that problems and hardships aren't there in life, but I think we let those things cloud over the little, or big things in life that can make us happy.

I've noticed on Instagram all of the #100happydays.  I finally decided to look into it and it's a challenge to see if you can be happy for 100 days in a row.  It can help you appreciate the things in life that make you happy and to be more optimistic about life.  I think this is a great challenge for anyone, whether you are already very happy, or very unhappy.  

This year is all about changes and transformations, both internally and externally.  I am going to accept this challenge and begin posting my 100 happy days starting tomorrow.  I encourage everyone to try this challenge.  Who is with me?!
