A Chill Day, Beautiful Things, & Happiness Is Peace
Hey y'all! I hope you're all doing great this evening. Tomorrow is Friday, yippee! I just wanted to ramble about a few things tonight, so grab a cuppa, sit back, and enjoy :)
Today was a very chill day for me. I had a great sleep, FINALLY, and hung out downstairs with my mom. I finished my book that I was sent to review (which I'll be posting tomorrow, so keep a lookout!) and wow I was so happy with the book that it put me in a good mood all day. I colored and caught up on YouTube videos...let's not even talk about the drama going on in YT world right now. It's all just so ridiculous.
I sat out on our deck with my mom this afternoon and it was so lovely out. The shade kept us cool and the breeze smelled so fresh and clean. Neighbor dogs were frolicking in the yards and bunnies were hopping around. Me and my mom were chatting away and laughing about silly things. It was just a beautiful moment and made me realize I need to live IN the moment more, rather than always worrying about the future and planning.
Which brings me to the quote I saw today while coloring: Happiness is Peace. I pondered that realized how very true that is. Happiness is very fleeting if we base it just on how happy we are at any given time. But if we base our happiness on how peaceful we feel, then that's more consistent. I felt that on the deck today, being at peace in nature and in the company of loved ones and I felt truly happy. Which is sort of rare for me and my many mental issues I live with. I don't know, maybe I'm not making much sense, but this quote really spoke to me. We might not have happy moments in our days, but we can create moments of peace to bring that happiness. At least, that's what I think anyway.
Well, that's enough rambling for tonight! I'll see y'all tomorrow and hope you have a great night!
Alette
