“Perceive and rejoice that like is abundant, that beauty and goodness are amply available . . . that your happiness is in your hands.” ~Paul Hodges

Half Full Friday is a series of weekly posts that Eye Girl originally started in June 2009.  Now the it is hosted by Sprinkles at Wyldechylde.  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?

“The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise.  It is not that we seize the, but they seize us.” ~Ashley Montagu

"Optimism is the one quality more associated with success and happiness than any other." ~Brian Tracy

 My question:  When are you most comfortable?

My answer:  When I'm being true to myself and standing up for what I believe in & doing what I feel is right!

"You've got to sing like you don't need the money.  You've got to love like you'll never get hurt.  You've got to dance like there's nobody watching.  You've got to come from the heart, if you want it to work." ~Susanne Clark

Have a wonderful weekend!!

“He who has not learned to share his blessings with others has not found the true path to enduring happiness.  HAPPINESS comes from sharing one’s self and one’s blessings.  All riches are multiplied by the simple process of sharing them where they may serve others.” ~Anonymous

My question:  When you feel like giving up; how do you Not?

My answer: I refocus, PRAY and take one day at a time. :-)

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down to your feet.  Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist.  Be curious.  And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.  It matters that you don’t just give up.” ~Professor Stephen Hawking on his 70^th birthday.

"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle." ~Steve Jobs

My answer: I have passion for my new job; my writing; the 2 books I'm working on; and for the future I can see in my dreams!
