"Whoever is happy will make others happy too." ~ Anne Frank

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?

"It is never too late - never too late to start over, never too late to be happy." ~ Jane Fonda

For the next week, we challenge you to keep a list of at least one thing that brought you happiness each day.

"The moments of happiness we enjoy can take us by surprise.  It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us." ~ Ashley Montagu

My question:  When you see someone who is sad, how do you cheer then up?

My answer:  It depends who it is.  My son, I get him out of the house to go do something he enjoys. If it's a student or someone I don't know well, I at least smile and give them some empathy and words of encouragement.

"Too often we under estimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around." ~ Leo Buscaglia

Have a beautiful and wonderful weekend everyone!!
Hugs and Many Blessings,
