Happy Sunday!
Look what I found yesterday…our dog, lounging on my laptop. Cute and totally unposed, though it looks like I put her there. In fact, I’d just gone to the kitchen for my third cup of decaf and came back to find Holly like this. She’s almost eight now and I hope she lives forever.
Today I’ve got something very simple for you: a little thought I’ve been having about my own happiness.
Our brains love keeping us safe and helping us do the same things over and over. For me right now, it’s time to try something new.
If you’re in the same place, ask yourself the bigger or smaller question. I know that happiness follows growth and stepping out, whatever the outcome, and that when we’re learning we feel the most alive.
Beginning again or daring to try is harder than seeking happiness, but it is always worth the journey.
I hope your weekend is uplifting, inspiring, and a whole lot of fun!

I just finished a smart, rollicking, fun novel about Seattle — Where’d you go, Bernadette. Wow, Maria Semple can write and since we used to live in the Pacific Northwest, this book was a winner for me!
Can’t wait to read Kazuo Ishiguro’s Klara and the Sun.
