Give yourself the gift of bringing more joy into your life. Choose to embrace more pleasure and have more fun.

Allow yourself to get really excited about what could be.

Instead of writing a TO DO list, create a TO HAVE list.

Think about all of the simple things you really love to do, especially if you rarely get around to doing them. 

Here are a few of my favorite things to spark your imagination.

A long walk in my favorite forest.

Sitting by the ocean with my husband breathing in the salt air at sunset.

Watching my Golden Retrievers smile with delight as we play fetch. 

Calling a friend or family member just to say I love you.

Just being…no schedules…no have-tos…just being.  

Kayaking though the canals that run through my neighborhood on a quite afternoon.

Sitting in the middle of my favorite bookstore perusing books that call to me from the miles of shelves that surround me. 

Playing a good natured joke on a friend who could use a really good laugh.

Getting lost in a favorite song, connecting with the lyrics or swaying to the melody.

Dancing under the moonlight. 

What would you like to do or have more often? More play?  Less TO DOs?  

Create your TO HAVE list.

Then schedule a day in the not-too-distant-future to revel in the things that bring you the greatest joy!

Celebrate Your Life!
