Its true I am a happy person.

I am not the giddy person you meet that drives you nuts because they always seem happy. But I am a truely happy person. This does not mean that I don't have sad times. Of course I do. Everyone does really. It can't be helped. You live, you love, you die and you have happy AND sad times. I am all in all a happy person.

I have completed all of my major dreams. My first dreams. I married a wonderful man, I lived in England for three years, I have four sons and I have my own house complete with dog and a few cats.
Those were my first dreams. The really important ones to me. I am sucessful. Very sucessful. Isn't being sucessful realizing your dreams? It really is. I am one of the very few people that I have ever known who really have realized their dreams.

This makes me happy. But I realized something very important. Once you have everything you wanted in your dreams you start thinking about new dreams. I have new dreams and guess what... they are coming true too. I have been offered a job at a day care center doing the stuff I like to do. I am getting our second home and we are moving to the country where we can homestead. One of my boys has grown and has a job. The next one is nearly grown and is thinking about marriage, jobs, and finding a place to live. They great up right and are doing well. They are on track. This is very important to be happy too. Because you want the people around you to be happy. I go out of my way to try to make the people around me be happy. It isn't always easy. It is, however, worth the effort.

I try to find the good in everything. Sometimes it is a trial in itself to do this. I can think of several things that were very hard to find something good about. I won't go into that. For every thing that I ever found not good, I have also found something good.

Keep looking on the sunny side of life. Look for the good in things. Its nearly always there if you look for it even though you might have to wait and see.
