I think that I am a very positive person. I can’t stand it when I am surrounded by negativity. It is something that I really don’t like. So I make a point to share happiness all around me wherever I can. I love it when you can make someone smile just by doing the littlest of things. From sending a thank you note, to bringing over a plate of cookies. I love it when I can brighten someones day in the littlest of ways.I love my family. They are the world to me. So anytime I can make them happy, I jump on the chance. From little sweet notes stuffed in their lunch boxes, to writing I Love You in lipstick on the mirror. I want to share with you some great ways in which you can spread the happiness around this year.
- Sweet Notes. Leave little notes all around. Surprise your kids or hubby in unexpected places. Like on the fridge or backdoor. Even in their school lockers. What a pleasant surprise when they find it and you will definitely make their whole day. It is so much fun when they least expect it. You can also leave a handful of Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Drops with the note. YUMMY!
- Give of your time! Charity. Such a powerful word. You can always spread love through acts of kindness. I believe that giving back is essential in my family when we have been blessed with so much. Head on over to your local shelter or soup kitchen and volunteer your time. There is nothing greater than being able to give to those in need. Always such a humbling experience.
- Say “I Love You”! I cannot begin to emphasize the impact that those three little words can make. I make sure I make it a point to say it multiple times throughout the day to my family.
- Make a telephone call. Whether it be to your grandma who lives far away or an old friend from college or high school. What a fun thing to do. You will love catching up…plus you will make their day and they will know you are thinking of them. I am sure it will bring a smile to their face. It would to me.
So take some time and spread some happiness to those around you! You never know what impact it may have on someone’s life. How do you spread and share happiness throughout the year? We would love it if you would share your thoughts and ideas with us.
