Is finding joy in life one of your resolution this year? No, why? Yes, why? Its one of mine, why? Because it is time for joy in life. I have lived without it for a while. Just wondering how someone can find it again? I been working like crazy and being really lazy. My dreams passed, and I have no joy. I'm content in life, though would like to be happier, miss school. Yet, working at the place I do, gives me some satisfaction. Though when I come home, I come home to a messy home, and is the one who is expecting to clean it. It took me last week eight hours to clean my home, that is doing all the laundry, all the dishes, the scrubbing, and swishing about. That was after eight hours of work. Yeah, my hubby can help but he rather not...his excuse is that he doesn't know where to start. He is better at cleaning the home than I am. I feel tired after a eight hour shift, even writing has been on the back burner for a while. So finding joy is one of my resolution this year. How would you find joy?

I had had this policy for a few years now, I went through a few years of losing so many people close to me I made up my mind to find the joy in life and to do this I feel is to appreciate the small things in your life, like even not being stressed, just to be happy.

"appreciate the small thing in your life." Very wise. To be happy is a choice, no? I been waking up choosing to be happy, by the end of the day I'm so drained by trying to that I have not looked at the small things.
