I cannot again tell you how much the book I reviewed last night is changing my life. “Bonjour, Happiness” has just got me so into living in the moment and finding happiness in the thing I’m doing and the people I’m hanging with at the moment.
Tonight has been magical. My daughter and her friend cooked dinner for my husband and I. The wine was flowing and the dinner was salmon and vegetables from our garden. The aura that the food was coming from a good place and being shared among friends with a spirit of love, was so very cool. We all talked and shared and commiserated over food and wine and I really, really felt that I finally got the message that Jamie Cat Callan was trying to convey in “Bonjour, Happiness”. Really, folks, download this gem of a story. Take a lesson from French women, and find the gems of happiness that exist right in front you. I cannot tell you how freeing this feeling is.
Tonight, this meal and campfire with my husband and my daughter and her friend showed me just how much wonderfulness I have in my life, right here in front of me, despite the awful losses I have experienced this year, I have “joie de vivre” right here, at my fingertips, everyday.
And so, as another day goes by, I can’t thank Jamie Cat Callan enough for recognizing the need for finding happiness right in my own backyard, and …I have written.
