Behold, the Jar of Happiness.
With this jar, I will bring back the small things in my life.  How will I do this?  Let me tell you step by step:
Draw a piece of paper
Do whatever is on the paper by the end of the day
I wrote one mini challenge on each of these pieces of paper.  Nothing too elaborate, just things that will help me relax and lighten up like:
Go for a jog
Play your flute
Read a chapter of a book
Send your sister in law flowers
Compliment a stranger
Bake a new kind of cake
Ride your bike
Meditate (thanks Mollie!)
I’ve let work take over my life and I’ve got to put a stop to it.  Here’s to relaxing and trying new things!
Also, I only have 211 pieces of paper in my jar.  I need 142 more!  Feel free to give me some suggestions!

Happiness is a choice every single day. I want to do this right now!!

      I think the challenge will be in coming up with 365 things that I can do. Or finding the time to do it?
