I started The Happiness Haven (Cult? Community? TBD!) this year. It reminds me daily that joy's still worth fighting for.
And when the world's exhausting, my Unitarian Universalist community helps me breathe again, as they keep widening the circle, choosing love over fear.
I choose Hope. You?
Let yourself be astonished by the everyday. #JoyfulPresence #EverydayJoy #SacredAndSilly
Let go of who you were to become who you're meant to be. #Growth #LifeJourney #SacredAndSilly
Invite someone into your world today ~ you might find yourself in theirs. #Connection #Community #SacredAndSilly
Gratitude shifts your perspective from lack to abundance. Start with one thank you, and watch your whole world expand. #GratitudeAttitude #Connection #SacredAndSilly
Giving is not about having much. It's about choosing to share. #Service #Community #SacredAndSilly
Dance like nobody's spreadsheet needs updating. #JoyfulPresence #Wellbeing #SacredAndSilly
Celebrate the small wins ~ they're proof you're still unfolding. #Growth #SmallSteps #SacredAndSilly
Being seen and loved as you are is the essence of community. #connection #community #sacredandsilly
Be the light that gently brightens someone's path. #service #connection #sacredandsilly
Appreciation plants seeds of joy in the soil of our awareness.

A grateful heart doesn't deny hardship, it simply chooses to see beauty alongside the pain. #gratitude #growwithgratitude #wellbeing
Neurodiversity isn't ruining society. Ignorance, ableism, and a refusal to grow are. Tired of the BS? Talk about it. Challenge the propaganda. We know the truth. 💗🧠

As tornadoes rip through communities, they're hamstringing the @nws.noaa.gov and while children are starving they are gutting the USDA... AND SO ON and so on. 🥵 I can't stop the chaos but I can hold space for us to pause and regroup and sometimes even smile. Join us. thehappinesshaven.org
🌿 Grace is beautiful — but not infinite.
On a recent trip to Mexico, I saw both deep humanity and the cracks in our collective compassion. What happens when grace starts to run out?
I wrote about the tension and the hope:

Decide every morning that you deserve good things. Picture by anxiety positive. Black writing on a white background rainbow multicoloured smiley faces around the outside.

You don’t have to prove it.
You don’t have to earn it.
You just are.

Peace and Love thru.... Shenanigans? Oh yes. The (entirely... or is it?) fictional tale of where we started #thehappinesshaven

This is not really surprising, but it's important to talk about the impact of despair... and then do something about it. Just one of the reasons we founded Thehappinesshaven.org
After you hurt someone, there is a path toward making amends, emotional healing, and finding acceptance and peace with yourself.
