Today as I’m sitting here thinking about what to write and all of a sudden I’m feeling totally blessed in my life.  It’s not about money or things.  I think that it’s the realization that I can be happy anytime I want, just by thinking about things that make me happy.  Once I realized that concept, I thought to myself how powerful a tool it could be for anyone.  As a side note.  As I was feeling blessed I received a phone call from my daughters and son-in-law on how well they did in their first marathon.  Let me tell you a little secret.  Because of being in a blessed state I was able to really enjoy their joy and excitement.  This was because I didn’t need their good news to make me feel good.  A point I need to make with everyone today is that when you understand that everything you need to be happy is already inside you and your life will explode with joy.  When your cup is full of love and happiness, you will have so much overflow to share with others and that to me that is what living life is all about.  So how does all this relate to your wellness?  First if by doing your exercise, fitness program or an activity, on a regular basis makes you happy. You are filling your cup on a regular basis.  Like me when your cup is full you will have an abundance to share.  I really believe that if each of us needs to look at life not to make us happy but to be happy and enjoy life.  Remember what I said earlier, everything you need to be happy is already inside you.  You don’t need someone to make you happy or some team to win or an event to happen for you to be happy.  If you are happy you will be more joyful of all the things that happen to you in your life. And the negative things will become opportunities to learn from instead of events to ruin your day.  All you have to do is put things in your day that make you happy and have little thoughts that you can always use to put a smile on your face.  One final thought, when someone asks, “how are you doing?”, always tell them something more.  Such as “I’m awesome” even if feeling just OK.  If having a tough day, “I’m doing great!”  Say it enough times and even you will believe it.  Go out and Live an Awesome Life Now.
