I’m 60 Now – Here Are My 6 Tips For Happiness

Wednesday

Dear Elsie,

Now that I’m 60, here are my 6 Tips for Happiness.

  1. Have faith. See the bigger picture – it’s not about now – we are only passing through. Everything we have is temporary. That’s an unsettling thought but it’s true. From the homes we live in, to the body in which we spend our lives – they will both be replaced. Heaven awaits and with it a new home and a new body. We don’t know how it works but we know that it will be beyond our wildest imagination.
  2. Keep the smile going – I am always amazed at the drop of dopamine that gets released along with a smile. It’s just a healthy thing to do.

3. Do stuff that makes you happy! For me it’s walking – walking has so many benefits. Gets me away from my screens, clears my head, relaxes my shoulders and keeps me  fit. I also love swimming.

4. Let past regrets be gone – you can’t change the past – you can live better putting regrets behind you and moving forward.

5. Make the most of your relationships with family and friends. One of my favourite photos of this year…these are precious moments.

6. Have a positive attitude, and especially an attitude of gratitude.  This has to be practised. It doesn’t necessarily come naturally. I try beginning each day being grateful.

Keep on keeping on!

Hebrews 7:25
Therefore, He (Jesus)  is able to save completely those who come to God through Him, because He always lives to intercede for them.

It’s not about now – we are only passing through.

Keep the smile going.

God bless you.

In His Grip,

Gran xx 🙂
