Happiness Is...

I am in the middle of a Happiness Project for 2011.  I was given the invitation to join a book club by a fellow educator at my building.  Krista told me about the book, "The Happiness Project" by Gretchen Rubin.  I then went out and purchased it and over the weekend prior to Thanksgiving in 2010, I devised my own outline to do activies which bring myself and others peronal happiness.  I use my life verse, Romans 5:3-5 as the guide for what I do for bringing happiness to myself and others. 

I broke down my project into four different categories for the year, Work, Family and Friends, Play, Passions, and Personal.  Withing each area, I made a list of things I wanted to work on which in turn, I felt would bring me more happiness in the course of the year 2011.    See the table below and you will see what is looks like. 

Each month I look for ways to work on each of the categories and bring joy and happiness to myself and others in my life and community.  As of the moment, I am feeling much happier, and it is only January.  I still have an entire year to go!
