Life Is Messy

My house is messy. My hair is messy. My car is…well, honestly my car is filthy. The point is, there’s a lot about this life that’s a total freakin’ mess - but I love it. The day my son was born, I remember looking at him, and then looking at Brandon, and in that moment I realized I was smiling the most genuine smile I’ve ever had in my entire life. It wasn’t for a photo opp. It wasn’t forced. It wasn’t because I was trying to make someone else believe I was happy. It’s because I WAS HAPPY. I want more of those moments in my life. In fact, I had a second baby almost exclusively to experience that moment again. Just kidding. Kind of. Anyway, do more of what makes you happy, and if you don’t know what makes you happy, try everything. Switch jobs. Find new friends. Eat at different restaurants. Do it all. It is the most bizarre, light-as-a-feather feeling to be truly happy. You’re gonna love it.

What's the last thing that made you really, REALLY happy?

“If you want to be happy, be.” - Leo Tolstoy

Life's too short to be a grumpy gus. If there's something in your life making you unhappy, please CHANGE IT. Choose one thing today that you'll let go of or try doing differently, and let me know how it goes.
