What’s Your Family’s Recipe?
Saturday, October 25th, 2008Last week I published a new lens, Recipes for Life. The idea came to me as I was cleaning my kitchen. (I’ve learned through the years as a writer that there’ a connection between mindless activities and creativity, at least for me.) I was thinking about the people who have influenced my life, and felt a wellspring of gratitude for the imprint they’ve left.
Although my Intro to the lens began with a reference to my mom’s old pink recipe box, my thoughts wandered to “recipes” for life; our approach to life as we each uniquely know it. For me, a joyous life has meant finding the difference between happiness and contentment.
What about you? What would it take to make you truly happy? Have you found that perfect pace of life that satisfies?
Is your family spending half its time rushing here and there to keep up with must-do activities? Does fun mean having to spend money, or have you come up with other ways to enjoy life? In today’s tightened economy, we’re all looking for less expensive entertainment. Share your ideas in my “Freebie Fun for the Whole Family” Plexo. Let others benefit from your experience.
Have a great weekend, all…
