Turn that frown upside down

Some food for thought - life isn’t always rainbows and butterflies; instead there are moments and even days that can seem anything but happy or joyful. Well at least for me this is definitely true. I know that at the time this occurs I cannot see beyond the negative, but then there is that second of clarity when you can grab hold of the good of that day. This positive may have already happened or you may still have the opportunity to turn your day into a winner. Happiness or happy moments can be materialistic or as simple as a joke shared between friends. These moments or days are by far my favourite so I definitely have a few sure fire winners in my arsenal ready to draw upon if needed. I like to think there is a little bit of funny buried under my sass, however sometimes it is easier to focus on the materialistic happiness. My happiness tools are places like Michaels, Chapters or Bath & Body Works. Also, treats such as Starbucks cake pops, a cupcake from Cupcakes or Cobs Bread pumpkin scones can be the trigger I need for a smile or two. Lastly, a refreshing beverage in the form of an old-fashioned glass bottle of pop or a Starbucks beverage, probably a caramel macchiato, white chocolate mocha or pumpkin spice latte can save the day. In a time of negativity these are a few of the happy things that reign supreme to turn my frown upside down.
