What Makes Us Happy?

Who says a month of rain is so bad?

Who says a month of rain is so bad?

This is a question that I often think about. Whether someone comes to me with an issue of their own or it’s an internal issue within myself. What makes us happy? I’ll offer up a list to try to make more sense of it.

1. Start with a solid frame

Build something special inside of you that you can share with the world. The more stable you are on a day to day basis, the happier you will be and it will radiate. Try to appreciate things.

2. Appreciate things

Think about what makes you happy and everything that you have in your life. This simple act can instantly open up incredible channels of happy that you never even knew existed! Think about it. If you had something to be appreciative of each day, might you be happier overall? Try it now! YA! What do you have in your life right now that may have not been there before? Now take 10 seconds and only think about that one thing. I’ll wait…seriously, do it…OKAY! How do you feel? I feel happy!

So there’s this girl…

Hey everyone! I’ve been missing for quite some time again. Turns out my thyroid levels were off again(still are) and I seem to get quite distant from everything when they are off like that(maybe it’s good that this happened? Music always comes when they’re off. After all, there is opportunity in everything!). Don’t worry though, I’ve been making music more than usual!!! In the past month I’ve demo’d 2 songs and wrote another one last week! It’ll be demo’d shortly and we played it last night at the fitted shirt show! Check the vid below!

That gets me back to that ol’ header up there. The new song that we played last night is titled “A Song For Mary’, I wrote it about my wonderful girlfriend. We were talking last Friday night and I felt inspired so I picked up my guitar to jam on a riff that I had written 5 mins before I left for our first date. That riff turned into a few more and before I knew it I was singing along and typing up some lyrics. I busted out the lyrics pretty quickly! Once it started to flow out of me I couldn’t stop it and I was caught up in a whirlwind of AWESOMELY happy and beautiful things!
