Day 62: Not a Happiness Project
The Happiness Project has topped the New York Times best seller list. Apparently I was not alone thinking that maybe there was some road map for me in there about my own positivity quest. From the beginning though, there was something a little too organized and rational about her project for me. Turns out, author Gretchen Rubinwas born into success and money. She came to her project by way of...
Day 61: Washing Off The Day
“There must be quite a few things that a hot bath won’t cure, but I don’t know many of them.” -Sylvia Plath
I have always loved a hot bath. Even in the summer, I wait for the end of the day when I can slip into a steaming tub and wash away the day. Often I don’t even know how tightly I have held my back until I lean back in the hot water. My breathing slows and deepens and my thoughts slow to...
Day 60: It’s the Planning, Not the Plan
“The wise man bridges the gap by laying out the path by means of which he can get from where he is to where he wants to go.“ -John Pierpont Morgan

“Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.” Benjamin Franklin
All four of my children are currently in the beginnings of a relationship. My boy’s girlfriends are young and sweet and bring out the best in them. My girls both have boyfriends. My 11 year old, who is just graduated out of American Girl magazines, likes a boy named Albert who has an...
Day 57: Neutral Can Be Positive, Too
“The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny.” -Albert Ellis
Henry Ford was right when he said, “There are no big problems, there are just a lot of little problems.” Some days, or even weeks, they just stack up; one little problem on...
Day 56: Seeking Stillness
“Within you there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself.” -Hermann Hesse
I had never given much thought to the care and attention of my central nervous system until recently. Like most of us, I just assumed that it was one of the systems in the body that automatically reset and essentially managed itself. I didn’t link the behaviors like the...
