Word of the Day Wednesday!

Today when I was logging on to write about "Win the Lottery Wednesday" I realized that I was having a really hard time thinking of something. Sure, there are lots of things we would do if Erik and I won the lottery, but its stuff like: pay off student loans, buy a house, pay off our parent's houses, buy Erik and my dad new cars. Its stuff that isn't very exciting and will run out very quickly. Therefore, I decided instead I will do a "Word of the Day Wednesday" which will be much more educational, fun, not money orientated, and will never run out of material (at least not as long as I have this blog realistically). So. To Start off a new wednesday tradition we'll start with....

Happiness

Webster's dictionary defines it as: "the quality or state of being happy: good fortune; pleasure; contentment; joy"

I think that these are very good definitions because happiness can come from all different things, all different times, and can be either a flippant simple moment or a serious, earth shattering moment. I think everyone needs to lower their expectations about the earth shattering moments and just enjoy the simple little bouts of happiness that can happen throughout the day! I strive for happiness everyday and the days that I can't quite achieve it because I am in a bad or sad mood are the worst. I am trying to make those days be very few and far between. 

Good luck to everyone else striving for happiness!
