Happiness & Gratitude

We celebrated on March 20, the International Day of Happiness, which I told you about in my Article Happiness.

The arrival of nice weather and spring certainly puts me in a good mood.

However, these days, what really makes me happy is to work on the publication of my book "My Solo Wedding in Santorini", by the way don't forget that you can help me by sharing the link below but also by becoming a contributor: LINK.

Choosing to self-publish allows me to keep control over the creative process but it has a price, and for this reason every euro counts and your participation is precious to me!

Of a joyful and optimistic nature, I’ve told you already about my experience and my tips on several occasions to see life on the bright side:

• Happiness Activist
• Freedom
• Single
• Be positive
• Happiness
• Unicorns
• Thank you

​

I am happy because I choose to be happy

I explained this concept extensively in my Article Be Positive, but if there’s one aspect that prevails, it’s the importance of gratitude in my life and my daily life.
 
I’ve also made several videos on the subject, remember:

But read also my article Thank you!

And in recent weeks, I’m very happy to have seen the snow, having lived a long time in Australia enjoying the fine sandy beaches, but this time it was the white snowy beach (hahaha)!

Reconnecting with nature and its beautiful landscapes has been pure happiness.

“It is not happiness that makes us grateful. It is gratefulness that makes us happy. "

I highly recommend you read The Book of Joy, a conversation between the Dalai Lama and the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

Their wisdom, experience, and incredible joie de vivre despite the terrible hardships they’ve overcome, provide us with a tremendous opportunity to grow and elevate ourselves.

When I see the pictures of conflict or natural disasters, when many see sadness, desolation and horror, I see the courage, compassion and generosity of millions of people who overcome the unthinkable or help each other.
​

You perceive what you are

I choose to see the beauty of our world and our humanity.

It is learned, maintained and it is also grown!

This doesn’t mean denying reality, but on the contrary accepting it to highlight what deserves to be.

No article next week, my book "My Solo Wedding in Santorini" deserves all my attention...
But I give you more videos on happiness at the end of this article 😉
 
Have a happy week!!

Love & Joy,
