#100HappyDays Challenge: Day 47 - Another Happy Day

I really have nothing to tell you tonight. My day was quite ordinary. I woke up, spent time with my God, went to school, came home, cleaned. Prepped for tomorrow and jumped into bed. Lights out in three minutes. 

A perfectly ordinary contented happy day. 

I think honestly that happiness is not the things you do or have, it's not the people in your life. It's not your job, or your internet connection, your clothes or your bank account. It is an attitude, a choice and a trust. 

I trust God, I know that whatever happens to me does not matter. It might be unpleasant and uncomfortable but It will work out to be the best thing and I will one day thank God for it. So because I trust God I choose to look for the good in every circumstance, to look for the things I can thank God for. Which results in me walking through life with a habitually happy attitude. 

It's all based on knowing the Promises of God and knowing that God always keeps His Promises.

#100HappyDays Challenge: Day 46 - A Litany of Happy

1. I amuse my self reguarly by walking around shops saying things like "if I was a Velcro dot where would I be? I don't know why but that always makes me smile. As it turns out if I was a Velcro dot today I would be hanging on a hook near the ribbons and elastic. 

2. I found these, Koreas response to the hamburger. 
Instead of  bread you can get molded compressed rice. 
dreee
3. Divine Appointments: I was waiting at the train station when a familiar looking lady walked past. I suddenly realized she was one of my students from the first time I was in Korea. So happy to find her since I lost her number. I've been praying I'd find her ever since I got the job in 중계. 

Very Happy Lady Here. 



#100HappyDays Challenge: Day 45 - I can't think of a good title ...


As almost always my happy moments revolved around people today. Mainly. However I'm not going to tell you about them. ^^ 

Instead I will tell you that I felt inordinately happy using my new vacuum cleaner for the first time today, while cleaning my hobbit hole. Never thought I'd see the day when vacuuming could make me happy, but there's nothing better than using a dustpan and broom for a year to make you appreciate vacuuming. 

It looks similar to this. A DustBuster type machine on a stick to make a small upright vacuum cleaner.
