Happiness

Happiness isn't something that depends on our surroundings. It's something we make inside ourselves. 

                                                                                             From "The Hiding Place" by Corrie ten Boom

As a home school teacher I have the opportunity to reread, relearn and restudy many things.  Cori and I are reading "The Hiding Place" right now.  It's a hard book to explain to an 11 year old but there are so many good quotes.  I love the one above - we can find happiness inside, even when things outside look terrible. 

 

Stop and take a minute each day to think of at least 4 things that bring you happiness.  Here are a few of mine:

 

  • My sweet husband and his special way of taking care of me by always keeping my car filled with gas :)
  • The way my two dogs chase each other through the house playing.
  • A couple early days of spring in the middle of winter.
  • The years of love an guidance my parents have given me.
