Okay, so I received a fortune cookie when Glenn and I went out for Chinese food last month and it got me thinking . . .

My cookie read: “The coming month shall bring you much happiness.”

I received the cookie in October, so November, according to my fortune cookie is supposed to bring me happiness . . . What is happiness?

I decided instead of letting my cookie determine that November would bring me happiness that I would instead, once a day, figure out what brought me happiness. An experiment of sorts, if you want to call it that, to figure out what is my happiness and maybe help you find yours.

So for the next thirty days I will be finding something, anything that brings me happiness and write about it. You, of course, as my friends will have the privilege of learning what makes me happy and in turn maybe might look at your own life. Sometimes we are so busy in our everyday lives that we forget about those simple little things that bring a smile to our face and a spring in our step, laughter to our ears and a warm contentment to our heart.

May this inspire you to do the same—What’s your happiness?
