"Pleasure is the only thing to live for. Nothing ages like happiness." - Oscar WildeHalf Full Friday is a series of weekly posts that Eye Girl originally started in June 2009.
We believe that a lot of our happiness is determined by our attitude about the things that happen to us. So by participating, we are deciding to see the glass as half full, instead of half empty. We are choosing to concentrate on the positives, instead of dwelling on the negatives. Our Half Full Friday posts are a way to do just that. They are a list of the things in our life that have brought us happiness over the past week.
We are determined to find the something good in every day. Are you?
"Happiness is a conscious choice, not an automatic response." - Mildred BarthelFor the next week, we challenge you to keep a list of at least one thing that brought you happiness each day. On Friday, write your own Half Full Friday post and return to Life As Eye See It to link your post and to see what other blogger's found happiness in during the past week.
Don't forget to grab a Half Full Friday Banner or Button for your blog post if you are going to join in:
