As my New Year’s resolution I committed to spending some time really evaluating where my happiness had existed. What were the things that made me laugh, cry, upset or smile. There are without a doubt many things that have occurred in our lives that have left us feeling broken, and without a reason to smile. Out of these unbearable circumstances often comes the most creative, and ingenious of endeavors. There is nothing wrong with being broken, more often than not it is the broken ones who are the most beautiful.
Neil Pasricha is the creator of the best selling book and blog site 1000 Awesome Things. I was first introduced to Neil by a thinkGood. friend of mine who had been inspired by his TEDTalk that he did this past fall at TEDxToronto. Neil speaks of some of the heavier things in life that he had experienced, and how appreciating the small things that we take for granted, are the true gifts that we need to focus on and celebrate. This TEDTalk definitely left me a little more inspired and appreciative of all he little wonderful things that I experience on a daily basis. Please have a listen to Neil’s TEDTalk and his check out his blog 1000 Awesome Things.
doGood. feelGood. liveGood.
