Darla Shine's Happy Housewives Club
Now Darla Shine has created the Happy Housewives Club after the recent launch of her fun and inspiring book which I blogged prior to publication.
Darla Shine's site is the centre of her club with more topics than a week's shopping list from blog, forum/chat, personal stories, shopping, to mom swap, media, star mom, sex talk, and health/diet. She's doing her own radio show from her computer and you can also listen to her live. This is a forum for those wanting lots of happiness stumulii. It's a full-on housewives 'lets-make-life-brilliant' place to be.
Now I'm no housewife. But it's my belief that being happy in this world is ultimately what it's all about. And if we're not enjoying life much at the moment, then this is something to address. We can help ourselves and others enjoy life more fully and this is why I admire what Darla Shine is doing. We can make any activity a joy if we choose.
Whether it's cleaning my motorcycle or repairing a lock, no matter how mundane and tiresome the task is, there will be something that I can find that's good about it and take pleasure in making a difference. And housework is such great exercise.... Really, it uses all our muscles in a wide variety of movements, and probably better for us than gym work. It involves deep squats and knee bends, step-ups and lunges with the vacuum cleaner....then there's the upper body work. OK Now you think I've lost it. But it's not only good for us, it can be enjoyable too.
We may or may not have much money, and although a good income can help provide comforts, it doesn't guarantee happiness. But if we can find joy in our occupation and tasks, which is something we can all do, then we make a difference for ourselves and everyone around us. One happy moment followed by another all join up to make a happy life, and being happy boosts our immune system and helps keep us healthy. It's all an attitude. Happiness is a choice. Looking for it doesn't work as it's not to be found. We have it within us. We have it if we choose to be it. If you don't agree, then that's your choice, but it's worth thinking about.
Have a great day! :-)
'There is no road to happiness. Happiness is the way.'
