Thanks for reminding me... I need to go back and read this book:
http://www.amazon.com/What-Happy-Peo.../dp/1579546021
The first time I read it, I thought it was going to be gimicky, but it struck me as true, and really meant a lot. I think somedays I (or we all) forget what happiness is. We get too stuck on improving ourselves or trying for the bigger goal, and we forget what really makes us happy.
For me, true happiness was the spark in my rookie team's eyes that first year, or the student who I inspired when I was a Clarkson mentor, playing mariokart with my godson, going to Yankee Candle with my dad, or hanging out with my best friend on a spring day...
We need to remember that Happiness doesnt have to be the end result, we dont have to be happy every day, but to take a moment to enjoy the little things in life, and remember those when we need it most, that is happiness.
