So today I turned fifty (wow still blown away by the significance of it all). Yay Happy 50th birthday to me. In my new tradition I decided to do a blog post to commemorate my birthday. Sigh lol true to form I am writing it at the last minute. I can be super organized about some things and not so organized about others like writing blog posts. Since I am trying to beat the clock (not biological that ship sailed a long time ago). I will be brief.
I spent quite a bit of time prior to today mulling over what my 50th birthday blog post would be about. In my mind I made it mean plenty and overly significant. Needless to say lol my 50th birthday rolled around and I still was un-decided. Finally! it came to me let me write about choosing happiness and living a joyful life.
The themes of happiness and joy have been rolling around in my head all year and I have decided for the second chapter of my life (is that what it is called after fifty?) I want to live a joyful life. I want to focus on and do only things that bring me joy and people who make me happy. What you focus on grows so choose happy.
I have been mulling over the best 50th birthday gift I could give myself. I have lots of things I want to do (and lol I am yet to do even though my fiftieth year was the marker). However, most of them cannot be achieved overnight. So what can I do today, right now, everyday that would vastly improve my life? The answer to that, for me is simple, focus on the things that bring me joy. Do what makes me happy.
So for all the young 'uns out there reading this (that would be anyone younger than me) and for my peers and older folks too. Today I suggest you focus on finding joy and choosing happiness in your life.
