Happiness, Joy, and Laughter

Most of us take life too seriously.  Life is supposed to be fun!  If we can slow down and not be in such a rush as we go through our day, we could actually enjoy it.  We could talk to people in the waiting room or the grocery line.  We could brighten up someone's day who may be really down or lonely.  We don't have to be so busy that we trudge through our day. 

We should schedule buffers throughout our day, allow more time to get places. We could drive slower and sing along to songs on the radio.  Who cares if people see us bopping along to the music, it might even lift someone else up and make them smile by seeing us enjoy ourselves.  Maybe that would allow them to give themselves permission to relax and do the same.

Life is short.  As we get older, we realize we ought to have fun each day because today is all we know we have.  No one knows what tomorrow may bring.  Once we pass, we will move to another dimension...which is great, but we might as well have as much fun possible here in this dimension.

Action

Allow yourself to be happy.  Let go of any worries, even if just for today.  Put your worries in God's hands today and just enjoy.  Say "God, can you just take care of everything today and resolve whatever needs to be resolved today.  I'm going to enjoy my day!"  Do that for today and see what happens.  If it works, try it each morning.  You'll see it works and life then seems to fall into place and issues start to resolve themselves.  Life is supposed to be fun!
