I've been feeling a lot that I need to find a happy place and stay there, if not all day, then at least for a few hours. It's hard to do when you have a toddler toddling around your feet all day long, trying to keep him occupied and happy. It's hard to do when you have deadlines, tests, assignments, appointments, obligations. I don't know why this is a prevailing theme with me lately. Perhaps the hormones, or the knowledge of the imminent addition to our family are embedding these thoughts in my mind, making me feel that I need to get in a happy place now before I seriously have no time to myself for the next year.

It's hard to remember, but we can find happiness, bliss, just about anywhere if we really want to. It can be within our own imaginations, daydreaming some whimsical place that doesn't exist while we sit waiting for our daily bus. It can be within the cover of a book. It can be within the perimeter of your backyard as you watch your children play while the sun goes steadily to bed.
Find your bliss.
