Like Finding A Happy Place

It just takes a bit of conscious effort and a little bit of time.

Think sunny and orange. No, not Sunny-D. That stuff makes my teeth feel strange. Like that feeling of dragging my nails across a chalk board, except in my mouth.

Think sunlight peeking through swaying branches that are heavy with fresh, green, leaves.

Think guiltless ramen meals. Or, for a healthier diet: a hot bowl of mom's chicken noodle soup (Chinese style, with dong noodles). lol. dong noodles...

Think furry animals that actually enjoy your company. Cats included.

Think exploring the backyard as if it were a jungle, with menacing insects scurrying away from under your feet.

Think simple sometimes. It's easier and quicker than you'd expect, and it's good for you.
