HAPPINESS is . . .

You just gotta go ahead and bloom where you are planted.

I ran across this statement on all buttoned up, one of the Portland craft blogs I read (lurk) with some regularity. The idea is simple but empowering. It is all too easy to bank our happiness on “when xxx happens” or “only if xxxx would happen.” Finding contentment and happiness is often found where we least expect it: by living in the moment and making the best of our lives as they are today.

Is this going to become one of those affirmation blogs, where we are supposed to print out your daily posts and stick them to our bathroom mirrors? I will try it this time, but I don’t know if I will stick with it, besides, my bathroom mirror is small.

About

My name is Amy Jo. I live, write, create, and play in Portland, Oregon. I am a cultural geographer by training, but I earn my keep by writing and editing atlases, educational and reference materials, and scholarly journals. For fun, I cook, knit, garden, walk the dog, take photographs, read, paint my house (over and over again), hang out with friends and family, and write from time-to-time.
