happiness

It's been a long time since we have been able to innocently run up to our best friends and give them a big hug. I know it is one of those things since the pandemic that we are not supposed to do. A lot of us love our hugs and we are not OK.

It may be our goal to figure out how to live a long life. We strive for that. So we eat healthy. We try to exercise. We plan on getting all the sleep that we need. We try to make smart decisions. The key to a long life is it happiness?

The good news is that 2020 is finally behind us. That has made a lot of us happier. I know that doesn't magically make everything disappear. We still have hurdles ahead of us but I feel that things are going to get better.

Smiling is an important thing to be able to do. I mean who doesn't want a smiling face greeting you. Even with a mask on people can still tell if you are smiling. It’s just another thing we had to learn in 2020. It doesn't matter if it is at work, school or wherever a smile is one of the most important things to put on in the morning.

Have you ever got in your car and turned on the radio and your favorite song came on? Right there at that moment you realized you were going to have a great day. I feel this weekend as we kick off your "Feel Good Eighties Weekend" you will experience many more of these moments.

How generous are you? Do you find yourself being a very giving person? If so I have good news for you. Being generous could be the secret to a long and happy life. So if that is the route you are looking for you need to up your game.

Happiness really is the key to life. Leading a fun and healthy life starts with just being a bit on the happy side. It seems with all that 2020 has thrown at us so far that finding that happiness is a little more challenging.

I get it. There has not been a whole lot to be happy about in 2020. We just have to try. We need to get past all this and on to how things should be. The normal part of life again. Sometimes we just need to fake that smile until it's real.

We go through life and it is a series of important choice. You have to decide on many things. Almost daily. So making the right decision can be something that causes you a lot of stress.

So how about this for having a sudden boost of confidence. It is as simple as smelling a lemon.

Are you having the argument at home about getting a pet? I can help you win this one. I mean if you are in favor of getting one.

What is the key to happiness? Is it marriage and 2.5 kids? Do we need all the above to be happy?
