Last week I started a happiness jar. I am making jars full of origami lucky stars, and my own jar was completely empty while I try to fill jars I plan to give as gifts, so I decided to use it for my little notes about things that made me happy each day. It's been a week now. I really enjoyed having to think about something that made me happy each day. It was a really nice feeling. I think if I were to do it long term, it might help shift my worldview a little. In a week, I don't really feel too different. But it feels like something that would build up over a longer period of time. It would be hard to not see changes in yourself if you did this daily for a whole year.
Hi there! I think that is so awesome that you are making some as gifts. Also, those origami stars are very neat. I am sure whoever receives this will appreciate such a thoughtful gift. It will mean so much when you can tell them how keeping your jar has helped increase your own happiness. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHello, again! So I have not done any of the learning challenges but now I wish that I would have! I think that taking time out of your day to write down things that have made you happy could really have a lasting positive impact on one's mind, and seeing this post really inspired me to try my own happiness jar. Thanks for sharing!
