The pace of life waxes and wanes for me. During slow, relaxing days I know I can spend some time engaging in activities that bring me joy and excitement.
When my day is hectic, it is a challenge to partake in my favorite activities. Still, I ensure that I experience carefree moments during busy times. I enjoy special events the most when the going is hectic.
I am creative in my efforts to do what I like. I use half of my lunch hour to walk in the sunlight or read a chapter of a great novel. In the evening while dinner is in the oven, I work on a crossword puzzle or do yoga. Before bed, I watch television to relax and replenish.
I am truly happy because of my efforts to work my favorite activities into my daily life. Rather than sitting around without much to do, I capture idle moments for my own pleasure.
Today, I carve out some special time to immerse myself in activities I love.
I experience joy each day because I savor the moments I spend doing whatever I want.
