30-Day Happiness Challenge (4)

This morning I am thankful for:

1. family gatherings and our ability to joke around
2. a family that will be silly with me and think I'm funny, not strange
3. hair products that make my hair look AWESOME!

Something meaningful in the last 24 hours:

At our family gathering last night, I went downstairs to look around. I knew there were hammocks, but when I saw them I just couldn't resist. I sat in one by myself for the rest of the night. It wasn't lonely, it wasn't because I was upset. I had me-time. I sat in that hammock and my mind was clear. There was nothing. I could just relax and hang there by myself. It was BEAUTIFUL. I haven't had a moment like that in such a long time. It meant so much to me to just relax in the mountains. I always have worries and a million things running through my head. I want to relax and be comfortable. There is no reason to worry, but I do anyway. Camping has always seemed to do that for me. If I am out in the mountains, or anywhere camping really, I can let go and just be in the moment. It is an amazing gift. I love it!

Also today I will reach out to a different person and praise them, AND I will get in at least 15 minutes of cardio. I'm headed to the gym so I plan on more, but that's the requirement for the happiness challenge!
