Creating

When are you most happy?

I am the most happy when I’m creating. Whether it be cooking, crocheting, drawing, or writing.  Creativity allows happiness to flow through me.

Cooking – my best dishes are the ones I’ve created myself. My family oo’s and awe’s over them while I smile. My husband has learned to question me. “Did you write this one down??” Begging that I make it again.

Crocheting – I might start with the idea of a pattern. But somehow end up doing my own thing in the end. The prettiest blankets are the ones where I left the pattern in the box.

Drawing – zentangles are my favorite, they show me to relax when my thoughts don’t feel relaxing.

Writing – All of us know when it rains it pours and those days are glorious! But when it feels like a drought, you just keep writing.

Decorating – I’ve staged 3 Airbnbs, and it’s so fulfilling to see them come together.

I guess we can CREATE our own happiness after all.
