Happiness in a jar

Happiness is defined as a mental or emotional state of well-being characterized by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.

I've been pondering lately what happiness is as I've been feeling abit low of late. I know a lot of things make me happy and I could easily fill a jar with happy thoughts.




In my jar I have at the moment my family, Tiggi, Farmer Jon, my spinning wheel, crochet and yarn but complete happiness still eludes me. Living on my own has it's ups and downs. On the plus side I can come and go as I please, do whatever I want and I don't have to worry about other people, but it does get lonely. I don't always have someone to talk to about my day, no one to help around the house and although Tiggi is lovely to have around she is normally asleep somewhere.

So, physically I have lots of things to make me happy but it's the emotionally aspect I need to work on. Money really can't buy you happiness, money can only buy things and although physical things help, they are only half of the story.

That's what I need, I need the other half of my story. I need the story which fills the second jar.
