On Happiness
On Happiness "My advice to you is not to wonder why or whither, but just enjoy your ice cream on your plate -- that's my philosophy" --Thornton Wilder Don't really have much to write at the moment. I bought a clearance priced book titled "1001 Ways to Happiness" a few months back. Now and then I pick it up. The above quote greatly amused me when I stumbled over it today Wanna be happy? Shut up and eat your ice cream. haha. |

I think he means more "stop analyzing it and enjoy it before it melts" lol. And yep... I'm on my way out to enjoy a bit right now. Friends, dinner, ice cream (since we're on the topic), and CRAFTING. well: Artsy stuff. OK: I'm spinning wool into yarn, no idea what friends are doing. Or may talk me into doing. Or I will just watch people practice rapier and enjoy random hugs and massages from a married friend I've got 1/4 of a crush on lol.

If it's mint chocolate chip I'm happy. If it's peach cobbler, not so much. It's always exciting not knowing what you might be talked into doing.

Very Zen -- very living in the moment. And living in the moment has its place... please share other quotes from the book as they move you... and let us know why they appeal to you, if you're so inclined! Stop in, read, and offer comments at my "swinging as seen in the media" blog, "Confessions of a Lifestyle Man" humorlife, which is also the home of the monthly virtual symposium.

That's my "Happy Ice Cream" If you carefully lick the ice cream off the fishies... they are smiling at you. And THAT makes me happy. hahaha.

I've been randomly happy ... an odd "Huh... why is this wellspring of happiness bubbling up inside me for no reason?" for a while now, with occasional moments (or days) of not-so-happy. The Happy is for, really, no reason whatsoever. It's just there. Excluding the friends and loved ones that bring happiness. That's a different type of happy.

AB SCA "Rapier practice at the park" and my friend is having art and crafting night there too so she can watch her husband. I mostly visited with just enough spinning wool into yarn to make a couple people ooh, aah and want to learn, and one person want to buy some handmade yarn off me. Tillamook Mudslide... I need to try that sometime.
