Spread Joy — Smile — Breathe

Turn on the TV and you’ll hear name calling and divisiveness. Scroll through social media and you’ll get the same.

It’s exhausting! It’s soul destroying. It breaks you down.

It feels like the world is turning on itself. I don’t know where all our sense of community or love for neighbors has gone. I don’t even know what my new neighbor’s name is. They wave (occasionally) but it’s not accompanied by a smile. They lift a floppy hand to greet me, as if it is obligatory not meaningful.

Maybe I’m just being overly sensitive lately but I wish there were more smiles. More listening and less talking.

I was scrolling through Pinterest looking for art inspiration when I saw this.

“Talking about our problems is our greatest addiction. Break the habit. Talk about your joys.”

Happiness is a Unifier

When I feel happy…

I feel generous.
