Happiness is a fresh baked cookie. Otis Spunkmeyer
If you are familiar with Otis Spunkmeyer cookies then you know that happiness, for him, is indeed a fresh baked cookie and he shares that happiness with others. I happen to agree with him because I am a "cookie monster" but it got me to thinking. How would I finish the statement "Happiness is..."? What's happiness for me? What's happiness for you? And once you know what it is, do you share it with others?
There's actually quite a few things that make me happy. (Different than joy btw, and that's a different blog) Baking makes me very happy. And part of the happiness I get from it is sharing it with others. (This is how Otis and relate.) Reading makes me happy. I don't share it with others by reading to them but I do share books I love with others and share what I think of the books I read with others. (Check out my Bookworm blog here.) Giving gifts of all shapes and sizes makes me happy and while I don't get to do it as often as I would like or want to when I do I am wildly happy to put a smile, hopefully, on another person's face and in their heart.
So I guess I can't finish off the statement "Happiness is..." with just one thing but I do know I can share what makes me happy with others. How about you?
